[dippedanddripped]

At the end of 2020, Titi Finlay, social media manager at Laced and Nike Air Max 90 guest-designer, posted a tile on Instagram to her 7,700 followers with a simple message: “We don’t want women’s exclusives. We want inclusive sizing.” In just over 24 hours, the post had been shared over 2,000 times.

Women have fought long and hard to be treated equally in the sneaker industry but being a female sneaker fan continues to be a bittersweet experience. Lack of inclusive sizing is still too common and women’s-exclusive models, like the recent Dunk Disrupt, often miss the mark and are chunky, slimmed down, or fashion-ized versions of a great sneaker that women really just wanted in their own size.

Unsurprisingly, women are fed up, but there is a positive upshot: the female sneaker community is stronger than ever. From designers to collectors, marketers to editors, female sneaker fans are uniting over their shared frustration and taking things into their own hands.

Helen Kirkum, one of the most-watched rising sneaker designers, has worked in the sneaker industry for four years and has witnessed it evolve. “Two amazing things are happening at the moment,” she points out. “One is that many women within the industry are supporting their peers, shouting each other out, which builds an incredibly strong community. Secondly, you can feel that this same network is aware that they have a responsibility to share the knowledge with the younger generation through mentorships, teaching, and inspiration. Showing that we believe that there are so many diverse and powerful female voices to be heard, that we respect and admire each other's work, and that we want to share our experience with a younger generation is a winning combination.”

As Kirkum notes, there is a growing sense of solidarity among the community at a time when action has never felt so urgent. Women are empowering women.

Copenhagen’s women’s sneaker boutique NAKED donated $5,000 to the Malala fund, a non-profit organization that envisions “a world where every girl can learn and lead,” to celebrate the release of the first women’s Dunk High colorway.

Across the community, there has been a surge in women-led platforms, podcasts, and feeds dedicated to connecting and amplifying women's voices in sneaker culture. Steph Hulbert-Thomas, global lifestyle marketing manager for On, started _Womeninsneakers, a podcast to celebrate women in the sneaker industry. She has spoken to an impressive lineup of women including Kirkum, Titi Finlay, Sneaker Freaker’s managing editor Audrey Bugeja, and Footpatrol creative lead Asheeba Charles.

“I started it for several reasons: underrepresentation, sexism, and lack of recognition — not just in my work, but for the amazing women I’ve had the pleasure of working with. _Womeninsneakers was born as a way to give teams behind the scenes a voice,” Hulbert-Thomas explains.

Her words echo those of Damaries Negron, aka @Kickitwitdd. Negron has been buying sneakers for 15 years and, frustrated at the absence of women being represented in the industry, started the Instagram channel @Kickitwitdd365. Her goal is to get 1,000 women to showcase their sneakers — and she’s already halfway there. “Every woman has a story behind why she collects sneakers. I tell women to voice their opinions about the game,” she shares. “Another reason for the project is that I saw the same women used repeatedly, and I got tired of that. I don’t think brands or blogs know how big the women’s sneaker community is and I want to show them the women who are like me.”

The sneaker industry isn’t the niche subculture it used to be, and yet seeing women in these spaces still isn’t normalized to the extent that it should be. Hulbert-Thomas speaks of her personal experience: “Being a Black woman in the industry comes with double the challenges, and I’m not talking about the ‘we have to work twice as hard’ rhetoric that I have definitely felt. It’s more having to validate, and by that I mean companies looking to you to tick the boxes — have we been diverse, are we being ‘cool,’ are we ‘culturally’ relevant? I don’t want women taking up space to become tokenized.”

Being one of the only women at the table is something that every woman sneaker fan can relate to. Award-winning filmmaker and OG sneaker collector Shernay LaTouche was recently invited to join a panel on sneakers by friends she knew from hanging out back in the Crooked Tongues days. She was one of four women in a room of 30. “All these men knew women who were into sneakers and could’ve actively put one more person in. But you don't invite us in the masses, you invite in a very small percentage to then feature in a video that you've created to say, yes, we tick the box. It shouldn't be like that.”

LaTouche is the founder of The Imprint, a collective of female sneaker industry professionals whose goal is to celebrate and share the female experience in the sneaker world. “Our stories are always told through the male gaze and the time is now for women to lead the conversation from the very start by creating their own narrative,” she stresses. “Women need to be in spaces where they can stand amongst one another, that share the same passion without any biases or prejudices.”

LaTouche brings up an important point. Women need to control their own narrative for there to be any hope of undoing the damage that has been done by portraying women through a degrading and patronizing male lens for so long. It’s without question the reason biases continue to permeate the women’s sneaker and streetwear industries. Sexualizing women makes it so much easier for the idea that they aren’t authoritative voices in the culture to propagate.

“I remember searching ‘Women’s Jordan’ in Google and the first thing that came up was a woman wearing nothing but a T-shirt and a pair of men’s Jordans,” Parisian sneaker collector Selma Kaci recalls from when she first started buying sneakers. Growing up in Paris, her access to sneakers in her size was limited, and her aunt used to send her US-exclusives by mail for her birthday.

When she was older, she traveled to sneaker conventions around Europe, meeting other women — “I would always remember who had a US kids size 6 for when we would resell” — and eventually began posting pictures of her cops on Instagram. “At the beginning, I had a lot of guys asking me if I was into sneakers because of my boyfriend, or if he bought them for me,” she shares. “I wasn't even showing my face on Instagram back then. I was trying to avoid being stereotyped, like I was a cute girl into sneakers, that I just bought them because they were ‘hype’ or fashion at the time. I know it shouldn't bother me, but it's hard. I have a great collection and great taste, and I actually like sneakers. And that has nothing to do with my sex.”

Dismantling these stereotypes around women is critical to achieving equality, and as much as we’d like to think that everyone working in the sneaker industry would get it by now, it’s clearly not the case. The only way to encourage authentic change is by having women in decision-making positions where they can pave the way for more women to follow. Thankfully, more companies are reshuffling their senior teams, and high-profile partnerships with women are on the rise. Through them, women are breaking into coveted product spaces that have long been male-only, such as Jordan's collaborations with Vashtie, Aleali May, Olivia Kim, and Melody Ehsani (several of which now resell at four-figure prices), and Yoon Ambush's three-way partnership with Nike and the NBA, made her the first female fashion designer to collaborate on a Nike x NBA collection.

Even though men buy into these collaborations, they are still mainly being marketed as women’s exclusives. As Kirkum points out: “Men have been designing shoes for women forever, but for some reason, there can still be a stigma against women designing shoes or sneakers for men — that makes no sense to me.” The hesitation to let women take the reins on prominent projects for men is groundless and reinforces the fact that they aren’t considered authorities in their field. There is no shortage of skilled women designers — just take Charlotte Lee, designer of the highly-praised New Balance 327, as an example — so to relegate them to less prominent projects and women’s exclusives makes even less sense.

While lack of product, tone-deaf marketing, and dodgy women’s releases are still huge issues, a problem that runs deeper is that women’s voices aren’t being heard — or, even worse, are being ignored. Fortunately, the female community is only getting stronger, and depriving them a place at the table is only fueling their fight. Finlay concludes: “The female community is one close-knit family. We all know each other and we welcome and support new members because we all know what it feels like to be overlooked and not have anyone relatable to talk to about it. We’re all passionate about a common goal — making sneakers equal to everyone.”

The resounding message is clear. Gender shouldn’t affect the legitimacy of a person’s love of sneakers. Women are banding together and holding brands to a higher standard. All we need now is for them to listen.

USA: Inn-fest: innova Recordings Label Showcase Saturday, March 11th @ National Sawdust

Inn-fest: innova Recordings label showcase Saturday, March 11, 2017 7pm & 10pm (two separate bills) Inn-fest video trailer: https://youtu.be/9sTAWHhgrMA Venue National Sawdust 80 North 6th St. Brooklyn, NY 11249 [phone] nationalsawdust.org Tickets: Act 1 (7pm): http://ift.tt/2aRndBTevent/inn-fest-innova-recordings-label-showcase/ Tickets: Act 2 (10pm): http://ift.tt/2aRndBTevent/inn-fest-innova-recordings-label-showcase-2/ $29 advance/$34 door Facebook event: http://ift.tt/g8FRpYevents/1739768609674505/ Program Contact: [email protected] [phone] A preview playlist of the artists on the program is here: https://soundcloud.com/innovadotmu/sets/inn-fest-at-national-sawdust/s-IpDHP Innova Recordings label catalog: https://www.innova.mu/    

Inn-fest is a two-act mini-festival curated by innova Recordings and showcasing an all-star cast of composers and performers from its New York contingent. As the label of the Minnesota-based American Composers Forum, innova is dedicated to expanding the boundaries of new music. Since 1982, innova has produced an ever-growing catalog that currently stands at over 550 albums, and promotes a staggering array of idiosyncratic genres and voices. This micro-marathon will celebrate the variety and vision that is a hallmark of the award-winning label. The first act (7 pm) features Miya Masaoka’s powerful double quartet, Eleonore Oppenheim’s performance works for double-bass and electronics, Mari Kimura’sastonishing violin techniques, and the Afro-Cuban inspired Bohemian Trio.   The second act (10 pm) opens with excerpts from Peter Van Zandt Lane’s ballet about cyber hacking, followed by Neil Rolnick’s works for laptop and piano (with Kathleen Supové), and Cornelius Dufallo performing works for amplified violin. The evening ends with a massive graphic score by Mark Applebaum interpreted by the previous artists joined by other labelmates, including Hans Tammen, Neel Murgai, Guy Barash, Gordon Beeferman, Yuki Numata Resnick, Viv Corringham, Trevor Babb, Grant Cutler, Bernd Klug, Neel Murgai, Hans Tammen, Jennie Oh Brown, and more. ARTIST BIOS AND PROGRAM DETAILS ACT ONE (7pm) Miya Masaoka Koto player and composer Miya Masaoka presents excerpts from the title track from her album Triangle of Resistance, inspired by her mother’s experiences in a Japanese internment camp in World War II. Played by a “double ensemble” consisting of a string quartet, percussion, synthesizer, and koto, “Triangle of Resistance” conveys the horror, chaos, and stoicism of that experience. Performers: Jennifer Choi, Vln, Melissa Tong, Vln, Lev 'Ljova’ Zhurbin, Vla, Alex Waterman, Cello, Ben Vida, analog modular synth,Satoshi Takeishi, Japanese percussion, Miya Masaoka, koto. Eleonore Oppenheim “Quietly virtuosic” (New York Times) double bassist and electric bassist Eleonore Oppenheim has a reputation as both a valued ensemble player and an engaging soloist. Her “subtle expressivity” and “particular eloquence” (San Francisco Chronicle) have made her a worthy collaborator for composers of her generation, and through these relationships she has built a rich repertoire of solo pieces. For Inn-fest she performs Crocodile by Florent Ghys; Home (the title track of her innova album) byJenny Olivia Johnson for double bass and electronics; and Angelica Negron’s La Isla Magica. Eleonore has performed and recorded with a variety of artists and groups, among them the Philip Glass Ensemble, Tyondai Braxton, Bang on a Can, Wordless Music Orchestra, Meredith Monk, My Brightest Diamond, Signal Ensemble, Steve Reich, Jonny Greenwood, and the “All-star, all-female quintet” (Time Out New York) Victoire, of which she is a member. Mari Kimura Mari Kimura is at the forefront of violinists who are extending the technical and expressive capabilities of the instrument. As a performer, composer, and researcher, she has opened up new sonic worlds for the violin. Notably, she has mastered the production of pitches that sound up to an octave below the violin’s lowest string without retuning. This technique, which she calls Subharmonics, has earned Mari considerable renown in the concert music world and beyond. She is also a pioneer in the field of interactive computer music. For Inn-fest she performs her own works with interactive electronics: Voyage Apollonian and Eigenspace, along with Brazilian favorites byGismonti and Pascoal. Bohemian Trio Few groups live up to their name as well as Bohemian Trio, whose debut albumOkónkolo speaks to the true voice of America: a cacophony of cultures that together forge a new identity that transcends Old World boundaries. Their original blend of classical lyricism, jazz harmony, Latin dance and Afro-Cuban beats reflects their diverse cultural and musical backgrounds. Saxophonist/composer Yosvany Terry and pianistOrlando Alonso were born and trained musically in Cuba, while French-American cellistYves Dharamraj is also part Trinidadian. Sax, piano and cello? This unique configuration was a conscious choice by the group to eschew traditional instrumentation for an improvising group, and it pays dividends in the sound of Okónkolo, at once refined and edgy. ACT TWO Peter Van Zandt Lane Peter Van Zandt Lane's electroacoustic ballet, HackPolitik, was described as “angular, jarring, and sophisticated” (Boston Musical Intelligencer) after its Boston Premiere in 2013, and dubbed a New York Times Critics Pick for its second run of performances atHere Space Manhattan in 2014. At Inn-fest, dancers from The People Movers (Kate Ladenheim, choreographer) and musicians from Juventas New Music Ensemble will present a scene from HackPolitick, a wild collision of music, technology, and politics that brings the compelling story of cyber-dissident groups Anonymous and LulzSec to the stage. Excerpts from a new work and Peter and Kate’s second collaboration, Four Passages, will also be featured. Neil Rolnick            Composer Neil Rolnick has a thing about machines. He likes to play with them. And he likes to tell other people how to play with them. For this performance, he will present works from his latest album, Ex Machina — WakeUp and O Brother! — mashups which spin and shape alternative narratives from familiar samples. He will be joined by pianistKathleen Supové for a performance of Digits with a video track by R. Luke Dubois. Cornelius Dufallo Bringing together elements of electronics, extended techniques, chance procedures, and digital interactivity, Cornelius Dufallo will perform works for amplified violin from his brand new release, Journaling 2: Missy Mazzoli’s Dissolve, O my Heart, Guy Barash’sTalkback II, and Kinan Azmeh’s How Many Would it Take? For the past two decades, Dufallo has performed and promoted new music, as a soloist and as a collaborator. He has been a member of several notable ensembles, including the Flux Quartet (1996-2001), Ne(x)tworks (2003-2011), and ETHEL (2005-2012). Currently, it is rumored, he performs as a member of the Secret Quartet.

Women’s March L.A. January 22, 2017

Today, my plan was to stay home, be an armchair warrior-ess and watch it all on TV because, dammit, I love TV. I had a list of excuses that wouldn't quit... I don't train, don't like crowds, freakin' hate strangers, don't want to be walking all day... If they gave out awards, I'd win WHINER of the year. Lucky for me, I have a friend like Olivia Negron who has no problem calling bullshit when she hears it. She said we'll go together, go for a little while, she'll get me a train ticket, she'll pick me up...there was no, NO!!! And then one of my younger friends said she wanted to go too...*sigh* there was no NO anywhere in it for me. On the train.... 930am... nose stuck in someone's jacket, packed in like sardines... thanking everyone's Gods that I'm not claustrophobic, my friends Olivia Negron and Cheryl Bianchi start singing. Just like in a movie... God Bless America... a few joined in... We Shall Overcome... More joined in. Silence... and then... This Land is Your Land. The whole car was fucking SINGING. HERE IN LA, THE HIPSTERS WERE SINGING. And then, we were SINGING TOGETHER, THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER... UN-FUCKING-IRONICALLY. Later, outside, complete strangers... intense and passionate and angry and loving... a sea of posters, slogans, pink hats... a sea of citizens exercising their rights. An ocean of humans who said, we are not afraid to tell the truth. We decided to leave fairly early and wound our way around an office building, finding ourselves atop a planter that was about a five foot jump to the ground... People noticed and stepped forward saying, let me help you, give me your hand, your arm... you got it. Amazeballs... Los Angeles, you have momentarily restored my faith in humanity. Mwuah!!!

As the label of the Minnesota-based American Composers Forum, innova is dedicated to expanding the boundaries of new music. Since 1982, innova has produced an ever-growing catalog that currently stands at over 550 albums, and promotes a staggering array of idiosyncratic genres and voices. This micro-marathon will celebrate the variety and vision that is a hallmark of the award-winning label. The first act (7 pm) features Miya Masaoka’s powerful double quartet, Eleonore Oppenheim’s performance works for double-bass and electronics, Mari Kimura’s astonishing violin techniques, and the Afro-Cuban inspired Bohemian Trio.   The second act (10 pm) opens with excerpts from Peter Van Zandt Lane’s ballet about cyber hacking, followed by Neil Rolnick’s works for laptop and piano (with Kathleen Supové), and Cornelius Dufallo performing works for amplified violin. The evening ends with a massive graphic score by Mark Applebaum interpreted by the previous artists joined by other labelmates, including Hans Tammen, Neel Murgai, Guy Barash, Gordon Beeferman, Yuki Numata Resnick, Viv Corringham, Trevor Babb, Grant Cutler, Bernd Klug, Neel Murgai, Hans Tammen, Jennie Oh Brown, and more. ARTIST BIOS AND PROGRAM DETAILS ACT ONE (7pm) Miya Masaoka Koto player and composer Miya Masaoka presents excerpts from the title track from her album Triangle of Resistance, inspired by her mother’s experiences in a Japanese internment camp in World War II. Played by a “double ensemble” consisting of a string quartet, percussion, synthesizer, and koto, “Triangle of Resistance” conveys the horror, chaos, and stoicism of that experience. Performers: Jennifer Choi, Vln, Melissa Tong, Vln, Lev 'Ljova’ Zhurbin, Vla, Alex Waterman, Cello, Ben Vida, analog modular synth, Satoshi Takeishi, Japanese percussion, Miya Masaoka, koto. Eleonore Oppenheim “Quietly virtuosic” (New York Times) double bassist and electric bassist Eleonore Oppenheim has a reputation as both a valued ensemble player and an engaging soloist. Her “subtle expressivity” and “particular eloquence” (San Francisco Chronicle) have made her a worthy collaborator for composers of her generation, and through these relationships she has built a rich repertoire of solo pieces. For Inn-fest she performs Crocodile by Florent Ghys; Home (the title track of her innova album) by Jenny Olivia Johnson for double bass and electronics; and Angelica Negron’s La Isla Magica. Eleonore has performed and recorded with a variety of artists and groups, among them the Philip Glass Ensemble, Tyondai Braxton, Bang on a Can, Wordless Music Orchestra, Meredith Monk, My Brightest Diamond, Signal Ensemble, Steve Reich, Jonny Greenwood, and the “All-star, all-female quintet” (Time Out New York) Victoire, of which she is a member. Mari Kimura Mari Kimura is at the forefront of violinists who are extending the technical and expressive capabilities of the instrument. As a performer, composer, and researcher, she has opened up new sonic worlds for the violin. Notably, she has mastered the production of pitches that sound up to an octave below the violin’s lowest string without retuning. This technique, which she calls Subharmonics, has earned Mari considerable renown in the concert music world and beyond. She is also a pioneer in the field of interactive computer music. For Inn-fest she performs her own works with interactive electronics: Voyage Apollonian and Eigenspace, along with Brazilian favorites by Gismonti and Pascoal. Bohemian Trio Few groups live up to their name as well as Bohemian Trio, whose debut album Okónkolo speaks to the true voice of America: a cacophony of cultures that together forge a new identity that transcends Old World boundaries. Their original blend of classical lyricism, jazz harmony, Latin dance and Afro-Cuban beats reflects their diverse cultural and musical backgrounds. Saxophonist/composer Yosvany Terry and pianist Orlando Alonso were born and trained musically in Cuba, while French-American cellist Yves Dharamraj is also part Trinidadian. Sax, piano and cello? This unique configuration was a conscious choice by the group to eschew traditional instrumentation for an improvising group, and it pays dividends in the sound of Okónkolo, at once refined and edgy. ACT TWO Peter Van Zandt Lane Peter Van Zandt Lane's electroacoustic ballet, HackPolitik, was described as “angular, jarring, and sophisticated” (Boston Musical Intelligencer) after its Boston Premiere in 2013, and dubbed a New York Times Critics Pick for its second run of performances at Here Space Manhattan in 2014. At Inn-fest, dancers from The People Movers (Kate Ladenheim, choreographer) and musicians from Juventas New Music Ensemble will present a scene from HackPolitick, a wild collision of music, technology, and politics that brings the compelling story of cyber-dissident groups Anonymous and LulzSec to the stage. Excerpts from a new work and Peter and Kate’s second collaboration, Four Passages, will also be featured. Neil Rolnick           Composer Neil Rolnick has a thing about machines. He likes to play with them. And he likes to tell other people how to play with them. For this performance, he will present works from his latest album, Ex Machina — WakeUp and O Brother! — mashups which spin and shape alternative narratives from familiar samples. He will be joined by pianist Kathleen Supové for a performance of Digits with a video track by R. Luke Dubois. Cornelius Dufallo Bringing together elements of electronics, extended techniques, chance procedures, and digital interactivity, Cornelius Dufallo will perform works for amplified violin from his brand new release, Journaling 2: Missy Mazzoli’s Dissolve, O my Heart, Guy Barash’s Talkback II, and Kinan Azmeh’s How Many Would it Take? For the past two decades, Dufallo has performed and promoted new music, as a soloist and as a collaborator. He has been a member of several notable ensembles, including the Flux Quartet (1996-2001), Ne(x)tworks (2003-2011), and ETHEL (2005-2012). Currently, it is rumored, he performs as a member of the Secret Quartet.

If this is tag, when am I it?

someone needs to tell me what the heck is wrong with my head.

I literally have needed a drink everyday I came home this week to mellow out and feel like I can function. I think that's one of the things that makes me so annoyed and terrified of what I'm capable of.

On a sadder note, Kara and Kyle ended their relationship but I'm so proud of her for being so strong and almost relieved about it. I think she just wanted out of it for a while because she wants to focus on other things. She's so strong and that's what I admire about her.

I can't help but feel like love is like a game of tag. Every girl gets tagged and has a shot at it and then when the relationship ends it's just on to the next girl to get her shot.

Is this what men mean when they say they are hunters?
