  • @Damotopia
    @Damotopia6 жыл бұрын

    I'm not gonna lie, I always thought the shoes were very vulgar, and kinda gaudy, but he as a person is extremely respectable and after hearing the whole design process, the mantra, and how much he genuinely believes in his products, it kinda makes me want to hunt down a pair in a colourway that i would actually like even though my personal style is more tech/athletic sneakers. A pair of 100MM would be a good contrast in my collection to Y-3s.
