CELEBRATING OUR WORLDWIDE COMMUNITIES – You know that we love our diverse neighborhoods and diving into the history of different cultures! So, it’s time for a little recap:   May was Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! In celebration, we partnered with Canal Street Market, a curated retail market, food hall & community space, for our "New Waves" experience! Together, we celebrated the resilience and cultural richness of AAPI communities over fireside chats, Asian-inspired dishes, a vibrant night market, and more! From traditions passed down through generations to the countless contributions that have shaped our history and our future, we continue to uplift the voices of AAPI communities. #snipes #snipeusa #snipesknows

NEW OPENINGS! We love to party with our global community, and our store openings are the perfect place to do that!

EAR TO THE STREETS – As we continue introducing some of our SNIPES colleagues from the US, we would like to turn the spotlight to Gabrielle Golden, Sr. Talent Acquisition Specialist, this week.     Gabrielle has redefined the recruiting experience at SNIPES, providing candidates with seamless introductions to our culture. As a mentor and role model, she continues to inspire the SNIPES family, embodying our brand ethos both internally and externally, and setting a benchmark for what it means to be a part of our team.    We look forward to introducing you to more inspiring SNIPES personalities! #snipes #snipeusa #snipesknows

NO CULTURE WITHOUT COMMUNITY! Soccer fever hit us hard last week. We recently supported the "Im Namen der Straße” (“In the Name of the Street") event series of Outreach e.V., an organization that is committed to mobile and socio-spatially oriented youth work and thus offers support to young people in the Berlin area. Together we kicked off a free soccer tournament for the Berlin youth.     20 young women and 20 young men were able to put their soccer skills to the test at the free event. I They went head-to-head in 2 vs. 2 matches on 8 pitches over four hours. And guess what? Thanks to our partner adidas, everyone walked away with awesome prizes!     But that's not all! The kids could also get a fresh cut from a barber, some cool henna tattoos, and enjoy some drinks from California Icetea — all for free.      The positive vibes and gratitude from everyone were off the charts! Big ups to everyone who made it happen! #snipes #snipeusa #snipesknows

EURO 2024 is loading, and UK rap artist Aitch and German rapper Luciano cooked the unofficial anthem of the Championship! ⚽   And if you watch the music video to “BADDIES”, you will spot Aitch performing in one of our SNIPES shirts! https://lnkd.in/eCFFrhfC     This is how we are merging a global sports event with street culture and resonating deeply with our community. As the EURO heats up, we’ll be rolling our more activations around Aitch and the song to give back to our community and create money can’t buy experiences. Stay tuned! #snipes #snipeusa #snipesknows

SEASON OPENING – We've been rolling with our SNIPES crew for a while now, and one thing's for sure – they love Festivals! And we can hardly wait for the festival season to start as well!  One of our most important channels are events where we sponsor a SNIPES stage, set up a store on the festival ground or make our soundbooth available to talented peeps to spit their bars – just to give a taste of what we're bringing on. Festivals are the perfect place to soak in that community spirit. We love that energy, those positive vibes, and the chance to link up with everyone. That's why SNIPES got big plans for this year and will of course be at the most relevant hip-hop events in Europe.   Which festivals worldwide do you think SNIPES shouldn’t miss this year? Drop your thoughts! #snipes #snipeusa #snipesknows
