Thanks Espen, for finding the link to the original "dog-wig" picture
(I first saw it in a Tube & Berger video (Mexican dog) on YouTube) :-)
I just love this image

“Originally developed in 1935 as a sporting shoe, Warriors intended to provide the public cheap access to athletics. At the time, without the industry presence of international footwear brands, Warrior dominated the Chinese market and became a lifestyle piece in its own right. Warrior was the shoe in China from the 70’s to 90’s. Everyone had a pair at home - - farmers, athletes, laborers, political leaders, and everyone in between. However, as China opened up to Western markets— accepting US mega-brands — Warriors’ status was relegated to that of the de facto shoe for laborers and elderly citizen.”

“Each and every shoe is unique, just like the people who wear them. The shoes are not specific to males or females, so anyone can enjoy any pair.”

Warriors are now a part of Alife Rivington Club, Bodega and Union (warriorfootwear.com)

I have noticed some of the Warrior shoes earlier but didn’t know the history behind the shoes. I really like the classic and simple design. My favorite one is the Street Kung Fu.

Two limited-edition versions of Objectified - DVD and USB Limited Editions and the Blu-ray disc edition of the film are now available for pre-order. The usb stick looks super cool! I pre-ordered the regular dvd edition a few weeks back...hmm...well well I will at least get early shipping (a week before the official September 29 release date) and a free Objectified tote bag Can't wait!
