YouTube’s paid subscription service is real. Today the Google-owned video-sharing platform unveiled YouTube Red. Set to launch later this month in the U.S. before going global in the near future, the subscription service will allow users to pay $9.99 USD per month for ad-free viewing across the platform. YouTube Red will basically replace Google Music Key and, going forward, those who subscribe to either Google Play or YouTube Red will get both services.
Coinciding with the release will be a brand new YouTube Music app — dedicated to music-related video streaming — that will also be free with ads or ad-free with a paid subscription.
For more on both YouTube Red and YouTube Music, head on over to the platform’s blog. YouTube Red will launch October 28 in the United States.

Baskèts Amsterdam x Quick QR78
Started in 1905, Quick has always been a pioneering brand in sneakers and in a collaborative effort with Baskèts Amsterdam, it will be re-launching its historic sneakers with small innovative adjustments.
The collaboration works on the classic running model of the QR78, which was first launched in 1978. It retains the original contours but utilizes materials that are adapted to the requirements of a more contemporary time. Black nubuck overlays are blended with perforated suede and accents of salmon for the upper. The midsole comes in a combination of grey, black and white, while the outsole is a crisp black. Finishing off the shoe are rope laces and embossed branding on the upper and heel tab.
The launch of this QR78 is set on July 25th, in-store at Baskèts Amsterdam.
