In celebration of International Women's Day, Google has unveiled a new doodle that inspires women and honors their achievements. But instead of using animated characters, the tech giant opted to travel to 13 different cities across the globe and asked a diverse group of females to finish the sentence "One day, I will . . . " Some of them are prominent figures: Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, anthropologist Jane Goodall, and activist Muzoon Almellehan. But most are everyday girls and women with big dreams and aspirations.
When I was in high school, doodling on kicks was a thing. How cool to come into class, learn a few things, then walk out with a pair of scribbled-on sneakers. Even today, many basketball stars are using their shoes for much more than performance. Take a close look at their trainers and you'll find messages written all over. Now Nike is celebrating the process with the release of its Blazer Mid 77 Scribble. Aside from the hand-drawn sidewall Swoosh, the shoe also has smaller notes hidden all over, including the style name and the year it was made. The tongue is also equipped with the brand's logo, which has been hand-drawn in black. I really like the design, especially the imperfect lines. And since we're talking about scribbled-on sneakers, I can't not mention Niko Pelaez . He's a true shoe-drawing machine! [h/t: Sneaker News ]
