Run by a group of sneaker and streetwear fiends who collectively call themselves Dead Stock, the annual event draws sneakerheads and fashion-savvy skate-punks from far beyond North Texas into town for a weekend of hip-hop, basketball and, most important, a couple hours of showing off. Case in point: Kixpo, Dallas' annual sneaker and streetwear expo. The only thing missing from the indoor park is well, the outdoors, and that's in the park's future.ĭon't let the Uptown yuppies in their Polo shirts and Banana Republic slacks fool you: There is, indeed, quite the hip streetwear fashion scene in Dallas-and it's growing every year. There's a café and a lounge and on-site grooming-a one-of-a-kind experience for dog and dog lover. Yes, there's a fee, but it's worth it, particularly during long bouts of inclement weather when Rover just can't rove without getting heat stroke or mud-caked paws. First off, it's indoors, has 25,000 square feet of K9Grass, an antimicrobial, easy on the paws (and the human nose) synthetic grass, and safe environs, with attendants on call to break up any fight between territorial terriers or whomever. But there is a new canine scene in town, Unleashed, and it has amenities other dog parks can't match. (Sorry.) It would be easy to bark up the same old tree (another apology) and give the Mockingbird Point Dog Park at White Rock Lake, which teaches socialization skills for both man and beast, our annual nod. With the advent of new dog parks around the metroplex, this competition has gotten downright dog-eat-dog.
