*About

DeFY. New York is a footwear dominated lifestyle website that bridges the past with the present in a way that has never been done before. It is a hub for all things “footwear”, from a growing materials reference guide to the latest shoe releases and everything in between. In addition to the “main course” of footwear, DeFY. also covers the “condiments” of what makes the culture what it was, what it is, and what it will become. This includes apparel, music, movies, health, sports, video games, and much more. To “defy” is to reject, and DeFY. New York rejects the common formula of other sneaker related sites. Sit back and enjoy, all comments are welcome thank you for visiting 🙂
