"Everyone should have some glam and glitter, and
some punk, and some '60s in their life,” Linda
said in a statement. And that's exactly what you'll
find throughout the entire collection, which has four
designs: three that come in a special-edition box
and one sold separately. https://www.instyle.com/fashion/accessories/happy-socks-johnny-and-linda-ramone

16. Adidas has perhaps benefitted from this
change in tide more than any other — mainly
because they sort of pioneered the game
through collaborating with the likes of Raf
Simons, Yohji Yamamoto and Kanye West.
But their latest choice of partnership is
something a little more Avant Garde, as
they've decided to team up with British
designer Craig Green — famed for his Genius
collaboration with Moncler on a sneaker drop
with an industrial minimalist twist that puts
emphasis on construction — or as Green puts
it, the sculptural nature of the shoe.
