The mightypop posts have been a little slow last week. I’ve been away at a photoshoot in Utah which turned out unbelievable. I’ll post the results in a few weeks.

Have you seen the new typeface over at You Work For Them? It’s Accidents Grotesque, a hand drawn san serif that confirms that mistakes can be beautiful.

Ryz Custom Shoes

July 16th, 2008 by Evan

Now everyone has a shot at designing a custom sneaker. Portland’s Ryz shoes lets you upload your designs to get voted on by users of the site. All you have to do is download a shoe template, then create your design. If it’s chosen you’ll win $1000 and $1 royalty for every shoe sold. I can see this site getting as big as Threadless. The whole crowdsourcing concept keeps getting used in better and better ways each year.
