We hate to ruin your pool party, but it's the dog days of summer and that means it's time to start preparations for your Back to School image revival. Sure, last year your attempts at becoming a new person may not have been wildly successful. That cream-colored, knockoff Gucci suit didn't make you look like Bieber. Those over-sized sunglasses looked your grandma's more than Kanye's. And those skinny jeans showed off your butt-crack with every long stride you took. Unfortunately, your style choices landed you below even "The Inbetweeners" on the social ladder.

Lucky for you, each new school year provides an opportunity to remake your image and we're here to help you out. Rather than go "Lil Wayne" with your fashion, let's bring things Back to Cool with these eight products.

1. UA Spine RPM Running Shoes

The new UA Spine RPM running shoes from Under Armour are the perfect place to start. They're lightweight, flexible and prove your feet can look damn good while still being comfortable. Whether you're an athlete or not, these shoes will inspire you to work out and get in shape after all the summer barbequing. The Micro G® foam encapsulated within the chassis delivers solid rebound and makes running feel easy. Plus, they're unique without being over-the-top.

MTV Clutch has tirelessly researched the bond between rappers and their kicks and built the definitive timeline of hip-hop sneakers through the years. See below.
