    The Outdoor Retailer Summer Show just occurred in Salt Lake City. Our team spotted some interesting developments on the horizon. Here are some highlights:

    We're not in Kansas any more: heels on wheels from Merrell.
    Urban/fixed gear trend continues: new waxed canvas bag collection from Timbuk2.
    Illumination: North Face's new Bike Commuter Collection may look like no big deal, BUT…
    Look what happens when light hits these shorts!
    Cool bike tees from Lole.
    A romper for cycling with snaps between the legs.
    The new length in outdoor: TUNICS. Look for lots of them next spring.
    Continued focus on fair trade organic fabrics, skinny jeans rolled up.
    Color in footwear.
    Toes in footwear.
    The beauty of wool: armwarmers, with knee warmers to match!
    Outdoor Retailer embraced the bike in a big way, thanks in large part to a trend by outdoor specialty retailers to add cycling to their product mix.
