The Brief

Put your sketching skills to use in the exploration of this urgent matter:

What does the ultimate Dad Shoe look like? Who wears it? Where is it worn, and under what circumstances? Is any shoe a Dad Shoe? Does the Shoe make the Dad, or does the Dad make the Shoe? With Father's Day happening this upcoming Sunday, we need answers and we need them now!

Ultimate Dad Shoe Deadline is this Friday at 11:59pm Eastern!
