Suzzy / SHOES MASTER / ARKIV GO!

Always enjoy catching up with Suzzy Tan.
He was a dominent part of PEN Crew and also one of our most treasured studio designers. Some of you might recongize his name from the BUKA Chinese Design Series. It has been almost 1 year since his departure from our studio, we sat down to review what he has learned and experience since then. Always an insightful thinker and observer, Suzzy discussed with me some of the problems he noticed in the current design community. Like I said; Insightful.

Glad to see you again, brother.
Can't wait to see you back on the streets bombing again.

A while back, the editing team of SHOES MASTER Magazine from Japan paid Shanghai a visit. I had the pleasure of sitting with them and chatted about sneaker collecting in China in general. That trip, they were on a mission. It was the first time SHOES MASTER report about the scenes outside of Japan. On that trip, they visited Taipei, Shanghai and Hong Kong, in that order.


All the experience and learning from that very trip was made into content in this issue of SHOES MASTER Issue 11.


Thanks to the SM Crew for including me in the content, I'm sure I have the smallest collection within that group of cats. Glad to see ICONIC-1 was represented in the Shanghai section as well. Our small shop is definitely growing, hopefully we can do more at the shop, make more things happen in the city.

If you like sneakers, go grab a copy of this.
You'll like it.
