For those who missed it, [Cool Cats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-cat-1) opened a pop up shop for two days this past weekend in Paris.

The Cool Cats pop up shop was in conjunction with [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-running-the-corner) and LIVESTRONG, and featured the official launch of the LIVESTRONG version of the previously released Busy P Air Force 1.

Besides the launch, the Cool Cats pop up shop also contained the second season of their t-shirts. Unfortunately the pop up shop closed on Sunday July 26th, 2009, but maybe there will be another one next year.
