Heart of Breaking

While skateboarding and surfing will make their Olympic debut in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, breaking will not be included until 2024, a little under five years from now.

Here at office, five years is a long ass time; in fact, we’ve only been around since 2014. But when we heard the big news, we asked a few of our friends in the NYC breaking community how they felt about the Olympics inclusion. And we got it all on film.

Meet Michael Hidalgo, Jonathan Restrepo and Rasheed Akbar, all current members of Titanz Crew. The three dancers break it all down for you in our new exclusive video, "Heart of Breaking."

Nike Air Tailwind IV 20th Anniversary

September 20, 2019

Is it just me, or has lust for the 90s finally surpassed, you know, like—the actual 90s?

But nineties nostalgia does have a point. Y2K was a hot time to pop off. The new millennium zoomed toward us with glitchy, apocalyptic speed as the dotcom bubble ballooned and the full capabilities of the worldwide web remained gloriously unknown. 1999 was the magic precipice moment where visionaries pumped out hit after hit, and electric, otherworldly, and futuristic aesthetics reigned.

Nike Air Tailwind IV 20th Anniversary sneakers channel that past futurism. The Sneakersnstuff exclusive is a cohesive mess of fabrics and a perfect marriage of colors. Based off a just-released image of the 1979 prototype version, the Tailwind sneakers are the stuff of your Charli XCX dreams, and they’re ready (as of today) for you to model kicked up on your old CRT computer monitor. Fortunately, Sneakersnstuff got FLOHIO to do us one better.

Queens of the Court

The pop-up tennis stadium featured young women from the United States Tennis Association and New York Junior Tennis & Learning, competing against the pros in a version of the classic “Queen of the Court” game.

Donning Nike apparel, the players sported crisp white uniforms while playfully rallying balls across the makeshift stadium. Rotating from station to station, the girls took turns paying tribute to the most popular womens sport in the world, according to Time magazine.

If you didn’t get a chance to attend, check out the photos from “Queens of the Future” below.
