Bravest Studios Scales up Apple's Iconic AirPods Into the AIRPACK Backpack
Summary Bravest Studioshas revealed its latest statement piece: the AIRPACK, a wearable backpack modeled after Apple's iconicAirPods case. Set to launch later this week, the 44-liter accessory reimagines tech minimalism as streetwear utility. The design features a smooth white capsule exterior with a clamshell-style zipper that opens to reveal two dome-shaped pouches inside — each resembling a supersized earbud. These removable compartments offer flexible storage, while a dedicated laptop sleeve and adjustable straps round out the bag's functional appeal. The AIRPACK debuted at a pop-up event in NYC's Soho district, accompanied by a billboard-scale mural campaign that amplified its surreal proportions and cultural resonance. The AIRPACK continues Bravest Studios' tradition of transforming everyday objects into wearable art. Previous releases like theRock Shoe, created in collaboration with artistCANYAON, blurred the line between sculpture and footwear. Similarly, the brand'sToe SlippersandBear Claw Mulesleaned into playful exaggeration, turning familiar forms into fashion provocations. These projects reflect Bravest's design ethos: bold reinterpretation, tactile humor and a willingness to challenge conventional silhouettes. The AIRPACK builds on this by scaling up a ubiquitous tech accessory into a functional, eye-catching bag that invites double takes and conversation. The backpack is set to release on July 25 online via Bravest Studios' officialwebstore.

Two Ohio State football players recognized as Big Ten 'Distinguished Scholar Athletes'
On Monday, the Big Ten announced the names of its distinguished scholars, and two Ohio State football players were among the list of names honored. Senior nickelback Lorenzo Styles Jr. and junior wide receiver Carnell Tate were both named Big Ten Conference Distinguished Scholars by the league. Styles graduated in May, but with a cool twist, because his father, Styles Sr., also graduated with him through the athletic program's degree completion program. The younger Styles walked away with a degree in consumer and family financial services and earned his fifth academic award as a Buckeye, joining his previous two Academic All-Big Ten honors and two OSU Scholar-Athlete recognitions. Tate is still working on his degree in sport industry. He, too, has five academic honors to date, with two OSU Scholar-Athlete awards, two Academic All-Big Ten honors, and now a distinguished scholar honor added. To earn the Big Ten's Distinguished Scholar Athlete award, a student must have earned Academic All-Big Ten honors the previous academic year, maintained full-time enrollment, and have a grade point average of 3.70 or greater. It's refreshing to see these two put in the work off the field and in the classroom. Congrats to both, and we can't wait to see what the future holds inside the 'Shoe as well this fall.

TravisMathew, Guinness team up for epic shoe drop in ode to centuries of Irish heritage
The 2025 Open Championship is being held at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland this week, as 156 of the world's best golfers descend upon the UK for the final major event of the 2025 season. And nothing goes together like some Irish golf and a pint of Guinness. TravisMathew teamed up with the iconic beer brand to make a must-have collector's item that pays homage to the rich heritage of links golf and, of course, that tasty, creamy Irish stout. Behold, the TravisMathew x Guinness Daily Pro Plus Golf Shoe. Shop TravisMatthew x Guinness golf shoe TravisMathew will only produce 1,759 pairs of this limited edition footwear piece — an ode to the year Guinness was born: 1759. That's when Arthur Guinness opened St. James's Gate Brewery in Dublin, just a few hours' drive south from the island's northern coast, where Royal Portrush rests in all its majesty. The design features the iconic harp emblem on both the heel and the tongue, and the bottom of the shoe looks exactly like a proper pour of Guinness — a dark brown hue toward the back which gradually turns into light tan at the front. The shoe itself — TravisMathew's Daily Pro Plus — is one of Golfweek's 12 favorite shoes for summer 2025, epitomizing the versatility of a casual golf shoe while ensuring stability and comfort on the course. If you order a pair, you'll also receive a collector's kit, complete with a custom-designed box and a matching putter cover, which features a design inspired by artwork from Guinness labels and beer coasters.

Ohio State Athletic Director Ross Bjork leading crusade for more football night games
Ohio State Athletic Director Ross Bjork leading crusade for more football night games If you are an Ohio State football fan, you've endured more than your fair share of Buckeye noon games thanks to FOX's bet on placing its marquee game of the weekend in the early viewing window. It's been known as the Big Noon Game and falls just after the network's answer to ESPN College GameDay, a similar show with former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer, Big Noon Kickoff. To say that OSU fans are fed up with a lack of night games for the biggest of games would be an understatement. It's no secret that Ohio State games have carried the day for the Big Noon window, and many fans are clamoring for Athletic Director Ross Bjork and others to pull their weight to change what has become the status quo. The realization that the Ohio State vs. Texas game will also be highlighted at Noon seemed to make those calls even louder. But never fear, Bjork seems to be in your corner Buckeye fans. When meeting with the media last week, the new AD spoke to the so-called issue with game times, and it sure sounds like he'll be working to change OSU fans' viewing big games just after breakfast. "I think our program, our fans deserve some marquee night games. ... Really, at the end of the day, there's no flexibility in the contracts," Bjork told the media. "FOX bought the noon window. ... What we need is we need more flexibility. Can that happen anytime soon? I don't know. ... We understand why FOX went with Big Noon, we understand why we're picked all the time, but we're hoping (for) just, more flexibility." Same here, Ross. Flexibility in anything is good, especially when it comes to creating the type of environment a night game in the 'Shoe can present. How it's done, or how long we'll have to wait is the question. The current television contracts run through 2029, so it sure seems like we've got a few years before there's language that can be official. So, what we seem to be left with is people sitting down in a room or having a phone conversation to shift things a bit. We feel good about Bjork making a run at that, but ultimately, it's up to the executives at FOX to get on board with that sort of thing.
