Joel Embiid To Sign An Endorsement Deal With Skechers https://brevmag.com/joel-embiid-to-sign-an-endorsement-deal-with-skechers/ https://brevmag.com/joel-embiid-to-sign-an-endorsement-deal-with-skechers/#respond Thu, 19 Oct 2023 19:59:09 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=50345 Joel Embiid, the Philadelphia 76ers’ star player and current NBA MVP, is reportedly in the final stages of securing an endorsement deal with Skechers, a well-known footwear company. The news was first reported by Shams Charania, an NBA Insider for The Athletic.

Embiid is expected to become the face of Skechers’ upcoming basketball division, which is yet to be officially announced. In recent weeks, Skechers made waves on social media when NBA players like Julius Randle of the New York Knicks and Terance Mann of the Los Angeles Clippers were seen wearing unreleased Skechers basketball sneakers. This suggested that Skechers has plans to release at least two different basketball shoe models. Before this, Joel Embiid had endorsement deals with Adidas and later signed a five-year contract with Under Armour in 2018. Under Armour introduced the UA Embiid One signature shoe in 2020.

Although there hasn’t been an official announcement yet, sources indicate that Embiid’s deal with Under Armour is concluding, and he was seen wearing Skechers sneakers during a 76ers practice session. Skechers is actively working to enter the basketball footwear market and believes that Joel Embiid is an ideal fit for their brand.

Shein Hit With Massive Lawsuit For Stealing Ideas https://brevmag.com/shein-hit-with-massive-lawsuit-for-stealing-ideas/ https://brevmag.com/shein-hit-with-massive-lawsuit-for-stealing-ideas/#respond Wed, 19 Jul 2023 16:55:18 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=26306 Shein, a fast fashion retailer based in China, is reportedly facing a lawsuit that alleges its aggressive copyright infringement practices amount to racketeering. The lawsuit, filed recently, claims that Shein’s actions violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), a law primarily designed to prosecute organized crime.

Shein’s alleged widespread and systematic infringement of copyrighted materials, such as designs and patterns owned by other individuals or companies. By invoking RICO, the plaintiffs are suggesting that Shein’s alleged actions resemble a criminal enterprise rather than mere copyright infringement.

According to the lawsuit, Shein allegedly employs a complex corporate structure to facilitate its large-scale production of up to 6,000 new items per day. The plaintiffs argue that this intricate setup allows Shein to engage in a coordinated and illegal operation that involves ripping off designers. They propose that RICO statutes are the most suitable legal framework to combat such activities. It’s important to note that the lawsuit and its claims have not been proven in court, and Shein will have the opportunity to present its defense against the allegations. The case will unfold through the legal process, determining the merits of the claims and the potential impact on Shein’s practices and reputation.

Houston Announces Massive Syphilis Outbreak Among Women https://brevmag.com/houston-announces-massive-syphilis-outbreak-among-women/ https://brevmag.com/houston-announces-massive-syphilis-outbreak-among-women/#respond Mon, 17 Jul 2023 17:33:15 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=26175 The city of Houston is currently facing a significant syphilis outbreak, as health officials have reported a notable increase in cases, particularly among pregnant women. The Houston Health Department recently announced the outbreak and revealed a significant rise in congenital syphilis in both Houston and Harris County. According to health experts, syphilis cases have increased from 1,845 in 2019 to 2,905 in 2022, representing a rise of approximately 57 percent. Among women, the reported cases have risen by 128 percent, with authorities attributing this increase to the transmission of the bacterial infection from pregnant women to their infants. This concerning trend highlights the need for increased awareness and preventive measures to address the syphilis outbreak in Houston.

In response to the rapidly escalating syphilis outbreak, the Houston Health Department is taking swift and proactive measures to address the situation promptly. To combat the rise in cases, the department has decided to waive clinical fees for individuals seeking syphilis testing. This move aims to encourage more people to get tested and receive the necessary treatment without worrying about a potential financial barrier. Additionally, the city intends to expand the utilization of its HIV/STD mobile clinic, which will provide increased accessibility to testing and treatment services. Collaborating with community leaders, the Houston Health Department will work towards raising awareness about syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases

Los Angeles Barber Viral After Messages Showing He Charges Over $1,000 Haircut https://brevmag.com/los-angeles-barber-viral-after-messages-showing-he-charges-over-1000-haircut/ https://brevmag.com/los-angeles-barber-viral-after-messages-showing-he-charges-over-1000-haircut/#respond Thu, 13 Jul 2023 17:42:56 +0000 https://brevmag.com/?p=26098 The alleged iMessage screenshot of a barber charging over $1,000 for a haircut has indeed gained significant attention on Twitter. In the screenshot shared by @DOLLABILLGATES, the individual provided their address to inquire about the cost of a haircut. The barber responded, stating that for house calls, they charge $350 per hour, with an additional $100 travel fee. They estimated that a taper fade, line up, and beard trim would take around 2 1/2 – 3 hours, resulting in a total cost of $1,150. The viral tweet sparked discussions about the pricing and raised eyebrows due to the seemingly high cost for a haircut.

Indeed, it is not uncommon for celebrities or individuals with significant financial resources to invest in high-priced services, including haircuts. Some people may prefer the expertise and exclusivity that comes with a high-end barber or stylist. For those who can afford it, paying a premium for a haircut may be a way to ensure personalized attention, exceptional quality, and access to top-notch stylists. However, it’s worth noting that such high prices are not the norm for the majority of people seeking a haircut.
