A warrior’s shoe is nothing but a quiet manifesto of power—each seam stitched with the intent of a king’s decree. I start with a silhouette that echoes the battlefield, clean lines that hold weight yet breathe freedom. Every tread is a drumbeat, the sole a story that rolls forward with purpose. I refuse anything that feels emotionally misaligned; a thousand dollars won’t save a stitch that doesn’t sing. Gloves on, sketchbook in hand, I chase that perfect symmetry until the boots could be mistaken for a crown. That's how you make a boot worthy of a king.
