Sanrio will have being doing it huge with the Hello Kitty icon for 35 years on November 1st. With branding on clothing and accessories to kitchen appliances to feminine hygiene products, you slap that simplified white cat face on anything and guaranteed it will be bought up by little girls, otaku and candy ravers stil stuck in 1995 world wide. To celebrate this occasion, Sanrio is teaming up with companies like Dell and Flik Flak and most importantly (to sneakerheads) with Asics to produce an interesting pair of kicks.

These kitties will set you back about $145 and will be available around September through sanrio.com. We’ll keep you posted on the drop.

This site is awesome but it’s content is absolutely horrible, for good reason. Photoshop Disasters collects the best of the worst photoshop accidents, whether done on purpose or not and allows you to shakes your finger at the “designer” responsible for such buffoonery. A monkey with one arm and half an eye could do better than some of these people. Which goes to show clients out there: do the research and  spend the money on a good designer to get a better product because in the end, you get what you pay for.

And side note, I think Toronto is racist.
