    Sashiko ( "SA - SHI - KO" ) is a traditional hand sewing technique that Japan, i believe invented, for custom denim clothing they made in the past. Nowadays in the fashion scene, a lot of people have been using the technique on modern day pieces such as jeans, denim jackets, hats, and even shoes. There are also different ways people try to intimate the sashiko stitching style by using sewing machines as like what Yohji did on the 3 stripes on these Gazelles. Whats also cool about sashiko sewing is that you can make insane repeated patterns and designs since its traditionally done by hands. Takes a lot of patience and time to usually finish a certain product when it comes to this method of hand sewing.
    Also, im fuckin mindblown that you skated a pair of Yohji's lmao

    The Gazelle ADV Skate Shoe is a vulc - exact same outsole construction as the 3MC and the Busenitz VULC. The Average Joe Gazelles are modelled on the OG deadstock Gazelles which are a cupsole - these are not skate shoes - one of the main reasons we skated them in the early 1990s is that they were not fashionable anymore like they were in the 80s, and were therefore cheap AF, being offloaded in discount sneaker stores.

    • @christianflores
      @christianflores  Рік тому

    I really like the idea of suede covering the outsole. I really like the flick of a tall toe box where the suede makes a good amount of contact with the griptape. Sounds like that's just not the right kind of suede for skateboarding

    • @christianflores
