Story-2:: Happy Dad X Prince
Overview: Lifestyle brand, Prince, has launched a new collaboration with Happy Dad Hard Seltzer. The announcement also marks Happy Dad’s very first lifestyle collaboration.
An essential inspiration for the collaboration was to create a classic yet stylish bag that can last a lifetime – enter the Prince x Happy Dad brown leather bag. Including a branded crewneck, athletic shorts and sweatbands, the whole collection is available at Princesports.com and Fullsend.com and in-store at select Pacsun locations. Here are a few of our favorites from the collection.
Get to Know Happy Dad was founded in 2021 by a wild group of friends that wanted to make the best tasting hard seltzer. We enjoy drinking beer & seltzer, but don’t like the strange aftertaste and high carbonation from other hard seltzers. Also, holding a skinny can isn’t cool. After tons of tastings, we know we made the best hard seltzer for us and our friends. Happy Dad is easy to drink, has low carbonation, refreshing with simple and delicious flavors in a regular can.

Story-5:: UA Slipspeed - UA most versatile training shoe designed for athletes
Overview: You see it with many young athletes – they crush the heels of their sneakers and unlace their shoes after a hard workout. Life moves fast for them and there isn’t one shoe versatile enough to go from performance training to recover mode.
Under Armour aims to inspire athletes with performance solutions they never knew they needed and now can’t imagine living without. Listening to our athletes and making their problems ours to solve, UA set out to develop a multi-dimensional shoe that can become what the athlete needs it to be exactly when they need it. The result was UA SlipSpeed™ - a performance trainer with a convertible heel design.
There is a special entrepreneurial spirit at Under Armour and this product is a result of that,” said Ryan Drew, VP of Curry Brand at Under Armour. “We continue to analyze athlete insights and current trends to identify new opportunities that can complement our existing suite of athlete performance solutions.
A sneaker specifically engineered for training with options for all-day wear, UA has reimagined the traditional training shoe. With its signature UA Flow and Iso-Chill technologies plus the BOA® Fit System and new “crushable” heel design, this one shoe is packed with some of UA’s biggest innovations to push the boundaries of performance.
When we took a look at the market and spoke with athletes, what we continued to hear was the need for versatility — there was a clear demand for an innovative and versatile solution in the performance footwear category,” said Marcus Cheatham, Director of Product, Special Teams, Under Armour. “What we have created with UA SlipSpeed™ is a trainer that not only adjusts to fit your specific footwear needs any time of the day, but also still packs in some of our biggest performance innovations like UA Flow and UA Iso-Chill for optimum training.
