Precisely one year ago, we set out to create a newsletter unlike all the others. And over the course of 52 weeks, we untangled viral TikTok moments, compiled the best trends from fashion weeks and trade shoes, reacted to pop culture phenomenons, interviewed industry leaders, and spotlighted retail successes. Our goal for Unlaced was and still is to cover topics you want to hear about, and react to industry news in a conversation involving you, shoepeople with (on, trend, comfortable, and high-tech) boots on the ground.
So as we enter into a new year of Unlaced, I encourage you to email me at your thoughts, reactions, and what you want to see covered each week. I look forward to the conversation! —Ann Loynd Burton, Digital Editor, Footwear Plus
