Mott & Bow, the meticulously handcrafted denim designers, have just introduced their new 4-way stretch fabric jean, “The Hester.”

Unlike typical stretch fabrics which only provide a horizontal stretch, this brand new high-performance denim stretches both ways, enhancing not only the comfort of the fit, but the functionality of the denim.

“We’re always looking to push the boundaries of innovation when it comes to what we call ‘denim science,’” says Mott & Bow founder Alejandro Chahin. “Customers can’t tell us enough positive things about the comfort and feel of our jeans, especially the denim that has had horizontal stretch. Creating a 4-way stretch jean that adds in the vertical component was the natural evolution/progression of our brand. We created these to stay ahead of the curve and give our customers something truly unique that they’ll love wearing no matter what they’re doing.”


MS_hester_4wayChahin says the most difficult part of the creation process was perfecting the amount of stretch and not sacrificing the premium quality of the jeans. To do this, the Hester was put through a plethora of physical and athletic tests before they opened up production including running, squatting, biking, snowboarding, skiing, etc.

The jeans themselves are available in three fits – skinny, slim and straight. Mott & Bow offers free returns on all orders and free shipping on 2+ pairs.

They also offer a badass referral program that gets you a $30 credit for each friend you get to purchase a pair of jeans. So phone dad and tell him to get a pair.

The Hester can be purchased here for $108 a pair.

Ever wanted to wear an emoji? Now’s your chance to wear the sneaker emoji
Josewong releases Apple sneaker emoji shoe
apple sneaker emoji and apple inspired packaging

Although emojis have become a constant in our lives and a vital part of the conversation, it seems as if only a few manage to look like real-life inspirations. Thankfully, for those who have always been intrigued by the vast emoji encyclopedia, the time has come to finally hold one in your hands (or rather wear it on your feet). Designer Josewong has not only created a real-life emoji shoe but a sneaker you’ll want to wear daily. Far from a gimmick or parody, Josewong’s design is a classic retro-inspired sneaker that looks exactly like the shoe emoji you already know and love. Although the entire design is entertaining, these sneakers are another timeless shoe you’ll want to add to your wardrobe. 
Introducing the Shoe 1 sneaker

Even though the similarity of the sneaker is enough to catch your attention, the inside is still worthy of being worn. This sneaker boasts a fluffed-up tongue and heel and is constructed with full-grain nubuck and mesh upper. The shoe also features a lightweight EVA foam midsole and heel, and a polyurethane rim for extra comfort. As a bonus, the sneaker comes with plenty of Apple-inspired details such as a 3D-printed re-creation of the A5 processor used to power the iPhone. The sneaker’s packaging also comes in a theme inspired by the minimalist Apple packaging. Available for $219.90 via Josewong’s website, these emoji sneakers are far from a joke. For those looking to complete the entire emoji-inspired look, a blue cap and a pair of socks matching their emojis are also available on the site.
