I've abandoned my blog. But there are good reasons. I'm working on a project that will launch next month and can't say much about it until it is finished. In the mean time, I will continue to post interesting tidbits, just not as frequently.

thanks for sticking around.]]> General http://www.friendandstranger.com/speak/index.php?itemid=236 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 21:48:35 -0500 http://www.friendandstranger.com/speak/index.php?itemid=235 Eames / Maharam

There's no shortage of collaboration here. DC and Commonwealth have followed in the footsteps of Vans by incorporating the popular Eames fabric, "Dots," produced by Maharam, into their latest sneaker. The shoe is exclusive to Commonwealth and is available in black and red.
