"This is the first release in the FuelBand's new "Metaluxe" collection, and the polished stainless steel clasp is inspired by luxury timepieces. As you can see above, the shiny piece fits perfectly into an accessory-centered street style shot, so we're betting the fashion pack will be clamoring to get their hands on this limited-edition release. Plus, wearable tech is on the rise, with companies like Google and Jawbone making huge impressions at New York Fashion Week last season."

"I'm not saying the written and broadcast media have cracked the winning formula yet (one need only observe the fashionable and entirely inaccurate "average position" graphic doing the rounds in production studios at the moment that actually shows you where players have touched the ball). But I think we must keep striving towards balance in our sport media consumption or face a bleak future."

"the Walking Shelter is a human shelter stored within a pair of sneakers. The tool is stored compactly in integrated net pockets in the shoe, and expands out and around the body to form an enclosure that relies on the human frame as a supporting structure. In other words: this fashion piece allows you to turn yourself into a tent."

"Allianz Arena (FC Bayern and 1860 München) and the Millerntor (FC St. Pauli) have done well on these lists, since they began being collected in 2005. This time around, however, it was Schalke's Veltins Arena that managed to gather the most points in the fight for winning the title of "Most vegan- and vegetarian-friendly stadium." The Royal Blues, who are headed by meat-loving and slaughterhouse-owning CEO Clemens Tönnies, managed a whopping 37 points on PETA's ranking, a new record. Finally, Schalke has won a title in convincing fashion. Vegan fans of Bayern and Dortmund aren't much worse off, as both clubs scored a great 35 points. The animal-rights organisation even gives Dortmund props for the fact the club introduced an easily accessible veggie stand for their fans who choose to not feast on what the organisation calls "animal cruelty.""

"It's pretty clever. When you're running, the Moov will give real-time audio tips right through your headphones about how to shorten or lengthen your stride or speed up. And even better, the app can run while your music plays, only interrupting to hit you with a helpful tip. The Moov band can be worn on different parts of your body, like your ankle or wrist, depending on the information you're looking to get out of it."

"Kit maker and sponsorship deals are a vital revenue stream. ESPN FC ranked all 20 Premier League teams based on the combined worth of these contracts. Where does your club rank in terms of "most valuable kits" (MVK)?"

"Qui connaît l'AS Velasca, l'autoproclamé "troisième club de foot de Milan"? Presque personne, puisque ce club fondé en 2015 participe à un championnat régional correspondant à une douzième division. Et pourtant, des articles lui ont été consacrés dans la presse internationale et il a même eu l'honneur d'un reportage sur FIFA TV, la chaîne de la fédération."

"Une photo, deux types qui posent sous signe Jul. Paire d'Asics aux pieds, jogging Nike, maillot d'Arsenal et veste Kalenji. Un starter-pack qu'on connait tous et qui ne surprend plus. C'est en regardant la localisation de plus près qu'on est davantage surpris : on est à Comunidade do Real Parque, quartier de São Paulo, au Brésil. Et ce style-là, au pays des artistes du ballon rond, est en train d'émerger comme une véritable sous-culture : le sportlife."
