PATREON PREVIEW - Die, Workwear! - Bespoke Shoemaker Seiji McCarthy
Patreon Preview from Blamo!
Derek and Peter and chat with bespoke shoemaker Seiji McCarthy.
Seiji makes some of the most beautiful shoes Derek has ever seen – not because they’re the sleekest or most sculpted shoes - but because, to him, they embody American style better than Alden.
Seiji makes shoes with much of the shaping and detailing you would expect from custom without losing the spirit of what makes American style so appealing.
He was recently in San Francisco and spoke about his career as a shoemaker, what American style means to him, and why there are so many craftspeople in Japan.
