On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and editor-in-chief Jill Manoff break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week. This week, we give a tariff update. The steep tariffs on China were delayed yet another 90 days, but tariffs on countries including Switzerland are now in effect, wreaking havoc on the luxury fashion industries. We also talk a bit about Gildan acquiring HanesBrands — both brands are giants in the world of comfortable plain T-shirts. Finally, we talk about the controversy around Adidas and Willy Chavarria's Oaxacan Slip-On. Later in the episode, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska joins us for a roundtable discussion on the state of the sneaker market. There was a gold rush of sneaker collaborations and category expansions through the late 2010s and early 2020s, but now the market is evolving. New players like On and Hoka are taking market share from traditional stand-bys like Nike. And experimental new silhouettes — from the slim-fitted Adidas Samba and Puma Speedcat to the wilder sneaker-loafer and sneaker-ballet flat hybrids — are becoming more popular. For this discussion, we also spoke with Alex Lotier, CEO of sneaker-focused Culture Media; Noah Thomas, formerly of Highsnobiety and currently the associate fashion director for men's and kid's at Macy's; and Brendan Dunne, senior director of customer, community and engagement at StockX. Below are a few highlights from the conversation.

Which is always welcome after a big event like Lakeland.We talk about the interest from HOKA and her upcoming shoot for the Mafate X on her Home Trails of The Isle of Wight, and I vent my frustrations about the fact that Charlotte hasn't yet been snapped up by the brand!Charlotte is always a welcome guest and I'm sure she will get the support she truly deserves!HT  @ultrarunning_sam @hometrails_ http://www.youtube.com/@ultrarunningsam

In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with filmmaker Abdul Kassamali, a Seattle-based director and producer whose path into film was anything but traditional. Born in the U.S. and raised in Kenya, Abdul originally trained as an electrical engineer before making a bold leap into filmmaking during the pandemic. Since then, he's built a career rooted in intentional storytelling and high-stakes production, collaborating with major clients like REI, HOKA, and The North Face. His work spans branded documentaries, music videos, and commercial campaigns, all driven by a deep connection to story and community. Abdul shares what it means to navigate two cultural identities and how that experience has shaped the lens through which he sees the world. From producing high-profile projects to telling personal, human stories, Abdul brings nuance to every frame. He discusses his philosophy on directing, the pressure and pace of the music video world, and his approach to capturing authenticity even when time is tight and the stakes are high. His collaboration with artists like Yo-Yo Ma and production studios like Wondercamp have helped define his voice as a visual storyteller. We also explore Abdul's dedication to inclusive filmmaking. Reflecting on early experiences where he was often the only person of color on set, Abdul now builds crews with intention, creating welcoming, well-oiled environments that reflect the world we live in. He breaks down the difference between diversity and tokenism, and how he brings care and clarity to both representation and execution in his projects. It's not just about who's holding the camera—it's about who gets to shape the story. From The Right to Joy to REI's Cadence and work under his HRVSTHOUSE banner, Abdul is a creator who brings engineering precision to creative production. Tune in for a conversation that spans continents, disciplines, and genres—an inside look at how one artist turns vision into momentum and story into connection. Abdul Kassamali's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abdul-kassamaliAbdul Kassamali's Website: https://www.abdulkassamali.com/Abdul Kassamali's Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/abdulkassamaliAbdul Kassamali's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/abdulkassamaliSupport the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

ITPM Flash provides insight into what professional traders are thinking about in the markets RIGHT NOW! In this episode, Raj Malhotra explains why the recent rally in the S&P 500 could still have legs, potentially reaching 7100+ by next May if history repeats. But the key, he argues, is breadth: a broad-based rally across sectors, not just large-cap tech. Raj highlights the RSP equal-weight ETF as the signal to watch and spotlights Deckers Outdoor (DECK)—parent of HOKA, UGG, and Teva—as a beaten-down small/mid-cap with strong fundamentals, margin expansion, and international growth. He outlines a calendar spread trade with asymmetric upside if DECK rallies as the market broadens.

Today on The Rock Fight Colin is joined by outdoor industry insider Eoin Comerford and brand and creative expert Producer Dave (aka The Monday Boys) to hit on the following headlines and topics that are percolating around the outdoor industry:Outdoor Industry History! In what year did these outdoor headlines occur? (04:41)Industry ups and downs: Clarus & Fenix struggle in their recent earnings while Hoka and UG continue to thrive. But is the Deckers rocket ship starting to slow down? (08:10)Hope for ski resorts? Two recent stories buck the trend of bad news for snowsports. Was this a good week or a sign of things to come? (17:35)The Rock Fight LIGHTNING ROUND! The fastest 3 minutes of news in outdoor media. This week we hit the new House of Sport store coming to SoCal, Dad's leading the back to school charge, and insole maker Ortholite sold for $770m! (21:23)A recent lawsuit out of the hunt/fish world highlights the importance of MAP pricing. We discuss. (25:52)For The Parting Shot, apparently last Wednesday's tribute by Colin about Malcom Jamal Warner was just the beginning of a bad week for Gen X because we also lost Ozzy Osbourne and Hulk Hogan. We pour a little out for these 80's icons (even if Hulk did turn out to be a scumbag). (42:16)Thanks for listening! The Rock Fight is a production of Rock Fight, LLC.

Send us a textMeet Scott Klingonsmith, a rising star in the mountain running scene who's ready to take on one of America's most challenging ultramarathons. At just 20 years old, this Utah-based athlete brings fresh energy and strategic thinking to the grueling Speed Goat 50K.Scott shares his fascinating journey from dabbling in ultras to deliberately focusing on shorter trail races to build speed, and now returning to test himself against the punishing 11,000 feet of elevation gain at Speed Goat. What sets Scott apart is his methodical preparation – he's been exploring the course's notorious rocky back section that has "ruined a lot of people's races," working closely with his Hoka coach Emily Schmitz to build the specific strength needed for Speed Goat's relentless terrain.The conversation dives deep into Scott's race strategy and nutrition plan, revealing the thoughtful approach of an athlete wise beyond his years. Rather than relying on conventional gels, Scott has dialed in a liquid nutrition strategy delivering 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour, carried in a combination of waist-mounted and handheld bottles. His racing approach balances competitive ambition with practical wisdom, as he plans to maintain contact with the lead group while recognizing when to make strategic moves on the course's long descents.Coming off an impressive top-20 finish at the US Mountain Running Championships at Sunapee, Scott represents the exciting next generation of mountain runners from the Wasatch. As host James Lariello notes, Speed Goat has historically launched the careers of Utah-based trail stars like Hayden Hawks and Christian Allen – could Scott be next? Join us for this illuminating conversation that captures both the technical preparation and the infectious enthusiasm of trail running's rising talent.Follow Scott on IG - @scotty_ksmittyFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com! 

Today on the show, the Monday crew (the Monday Boys?) of outdoor industry insider Eoin Comerford and brand/creative expert Producer Dave join Colin to talk through the following topics:Big 5 Sold!

(06:09)To celebrate Ortovox entering the mountain bike market we count the amount of cliches in the press release and ponder the motivation behind the move itself. (15:23)Helen Of Troy had a rough Q1 thanks mostly to Hydro Flask's poor performance. Was it the Costco of it all? (21:50)Tariff Watch 2025 is back! After a flurry of updates to our ridiculous tariff situation during the first part of the month, the guys take a look at the moves that were made and analyze the fall out that is likely to come for the innovation engine of the outdoor industry. Spoiler Alert: it doesn't look great. (32:29)For The Parting Shot, Producer Dave takes a look at Hoka's new brand video. Go Bob Dylan!

This interview is part of Freetrail's coverage of the 2025 Western States 100, the most important trail running event in North America. Our shows and athlete interviews are hosted each day by Dylan Bowman who sits down to talk with some of the favorites who are racing this year.   In this interview, Dylan talks to professional runner and 2024 UTMB champion, Vincent Bouillard (HOKA athlete & employee) for a pre-race interview. Vincent is joined by his wife and running industry veteran, Kamilah Journet. Vincent won UTMB in 2024 in what many consider the breakout performance of the year. Those who knew Vincent, were not surprised, but most of the trail running world watched along in awe as a humble, longtime HOKA employee ran away with the race and won UTMB. Vincent signed with HOKA as an athlete earlier this year so he can focus more on running, while still maintaining his high powered job. Vincent raced his way into Western States at Chainti by UTMB in March and this will be his first go at the race on Saturday. Kamilah is currently works at Salomon in Annecy, France. It was fun to hear from Kamilah on how things have changed since last August and how they've navigated this exciting time as a family. They share that they are welcoming their first child later this year, which changes how they will navigate life moving forward.   Make sure to tune into all of Freetrail's coverage leading into the 2025 Western States. We'll have a live daily show at 3:30pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of race week before we set our sites on the official broadcast where Dylan will be commentating, and we'll be providing photo and video coverage of the race for the Freetrail social channels.

Heather recently won the Unbound XL 350 mile gravel race just a few short weeks ago. Heather comes into Western States this year as a more seasoned trail runner, and it's hard not to route for this incredible multi-sport phenom.

Likefolio's Megan Brantley shares consumer sentiment data on Nike (NKE) ahead of its earnings report. She thinks Nike continues to lose market share to On Holding (ONON), Hoka, Adidas and others – a mix of established players and upstarts. However, she says they still have the largest piece of the pie. The bar is low for their quarterly numbers, but Megan “just hasn't seen” signs of a turnaround yet.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
