Palladium Boots brings us a different side of Detroit


It's not often you receive a gift like this from a footwear brand. Sure converse will give us a new Kid Cudi song and Asics will give us a photo shoot of a girl in a bikini but this is way different. Palladium Boots has made a mini documentary on Detroit and what is going on there today. The picture it paints is far different from what I expected. Yes there is urban decay but there is also an emergence of youth moving to the city in order to contribute to rebuilding it. It's actually a very exciting time for this city and not in the the sense that it's going to go back to the glory days. Rather, it has it's own unique future and people are moving there because they care.


This isn't terribly new; it's been out for at least a few weeks. It's also a bit longer than your average 3 minute viral but it is so worth watching. Please do.
