After visiting WSA last month, it was really apparent to us that the footwear industry is dying for a change. The show lacked any sort of vibe, in our opinion, and anyone looking for top tier, or directional footwear had to go through a series of weird hotel room set ups or hunt down a collection in a mega-booth maze at the convention center. So, BPMW is launching a shoe show, called Compass: The New Direction. The show will run July 28 & 29 in Las Vegas and will feature 40 of the world's coolest brands, all under one roof, with open fixturing, and a great vibe. We've already proven how fun a trade show can be with Capsule. Now witness Compass. Visit compassshow.com for more info.
