Heyday SS08

Darin Hager of Boston-based Heyday Footwear dropped us a line over the weekend to introduce us to some of his company’s newest styles, and we’re almost as excited as he is over what Spring’s got in store for sneakerheads. The SS08 collection features a lot of the same goodies we normally find compelling about Heyday’s collection (namely, a fresh approach to sneaker-design that results in an athletic/workboot hybrid and semi-subdued colorways), with a few surprises to mix things up. I’m liking this Rumspringa low, mainly because it’s just a good-looking shoe, but sort of because I think it would look amazing on a pirate. Also, in a heartwarming update for for all you home shoppers: The Heyday online store just went live this weekend, so it’s now possible to grab some of their Fall collection without getting out of bed. Woohoo, the only thing better than that is (was) Labor Day.
