Hello once again, FROW Men! Dust down those weekend blues and kick your week off by getting up to date with the latest news in the world of men’s fashion, grooming and lifestyle. This past week, we were saddened at the tragic losses of Takeoff, rapper and 1/3 of the group Migos, and Aaron Carter, singer and younger brother of Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys – our condolences go out to their families 🕊️✨🕊.
Last night marked the start of I’m a Celeb, with the lineup leaving people furious that former Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Matt Hancock, is flying out to Australia to take part, whilst James Corden found himself in hot water once more for stealing a Ricky Gervais joke on his US chat show, and the release date for the TV adaption of the hit video game ‘The Last Of Us’ was finally confirmed to be coming to our screens on January 15th 2023. November also marks Men’s Mental Health Month, with great causes like Movember well underway – show us your stache over on our socials (@frowmen_)!

Winter Is Coming & Dr Martens Are Back With A Technical Boot
It feels like we’re talking about Dr Martens every week but when all their drops are this fire, we simply can’t leave them out!

Constructed from Kaya Nubuck leather and held fast with Marten’s signature yellow stitch welt, this silhouette is designed for you to stay warm in cold conditions with WarmWair – an insulated fleece lining within the shoe, locking in heat when you need it most. Crafted for all-day, everyday comfort, the boot is also cushioned with a SoftWair sockliner and padded collar. Priced at $240.00, if you’re needing a new pair of shoes to help combat the cold weather or you feel like upgrading your footwear collection, the Trinity Boot might just be for you.

Stormzy And Adidas Team Up To Form Merky FC
It’s been quite the past few weeks for Grime icon Stormzy, with his album due at the end of this month, a BBC special airing this week and now the birth of Merky FC. Calling all football fans, Stormzy’s latest partnership with the iconic sportswear brand Adidas, is seeking to create leadership position opportunities within the football industry for the Black community. The multi-year career programme will create the chance for those who may not have the same access to get into the industry as others. Adidas and Stormzy are at the forefront of the initiative but aren’t alone as the likes of Manchester United, Fulham and Sky Sports are among a few of the 11 major brands that are teaming up with the duo. Stormzy said, in an interview with Sky Sports: ‘It’s been years in the making, it’s taken a lot of planning and preparation from ourselves and from Adidas who have been amazing.’
Applications to secure placement opportunities are open now, with roles starting from January 2023.
My idea of success for it is just more brands and people coming on to offer these opportunities and see people thrive in those roles.
