Are you a size 9 / 10 US, well fuck you because I’m not. Maybe, I might just buy these for archiving purposes. The bid is currently at 25 cents…with 3 days left
Notes:
-They would look great on my shelf in my future flat.
-The lacejob is superb
-Not everyday that the seller takes great photos like this.
Seems these days, that every item on an outfit has an essential necessity of history and meaning. I’ve been searching for a belt to go with a pair of crotch rivet-ted work pants. It would be disrespectful to insert a lace or my dad’s discounted Tommy Hilfiger belt through the loops. A western stud belt seemed to fit the puzzle just right. RRL or Tenderloin have and always did have some of the best looking studded belts (Not referring to pyramid studs), but through Denim Doctor’s, I found HTC a few years back and always procrastinated on the obligation of a nice belt. The Californian brand took flight in 2000 where ’til this day, every belt and accessory is hand-made by a team of artisans sharing a same philosophy: “Similar to the collectors of vintage blue jeans that are fanatical for the jean’s faded beauty, HTC goods are made with the same low tech, artisan methods, rather than with the precise conformity of high tech, mass production.”
I found this @ L’inde le Palais for a reasonable retail price of 260$
Most dedicated hiroki followers already have heard/seen this…(they’re probably disregarding my post by now). But I just saw it this morning. When the Americana Deck’s first got released in 08, they were an instant must have on my list. This year, they’re re-releasing them in a Visvim.tv exclusive. Composed of Horween Cow-hide upper & Horse-hide lining from the same well respected tannery (they also produce goods for Alden & Yuketen), the boatshoes also feature a natural cork footbed for great moisture absorbency and breathability. “Socks are optional but frowned upon.”
