SOLE BOUTIQUE
Spontaneously, I decided to take a trip to San Antonio, TX this past weekend to hand deliver a Fur Face Boy order to the latest shop to carry the line. Everyone say "Hello" to my new friends (from left to right) Fabby, Julio and B! Together, they form the greatness of SOLE BOUTIQUE! C'mon, let's check it out...
Instantly you will notice the shop's extreme cleanliness and massive space. NOTE: The pictures you are about to see of Sole Boutique DO NOT do much justice until you actually visit the shop. The space / set up is TRULY AMAZING!
What would Sole Boutique be without Soles? HIghly exclusive and limited New Balance, Saucony, Asics...
...PF Flyers, Puma, and Adidas are available at Sole Boutique!
Speaking of Adidas, Sole Boutique is one of the select few shops in the U.S. to carry the limited Adidas x Star Wars collabs. Without a doubt, I DEFINITELY had to get my hands on a pair of those Skywalkers!
Sole Boutique also carries apparel and accessories from brands like Mishka, Tokidoki, Kid Robot, Undrcrwn, Jeepney, New Era, Nooka and much more! (And HEY! Let's not forget about Fur Face Boy too!)
Aside from the awesome store set up and selction of brands, another unique quality of Sole Boutique is all of the coolass original art (by local artisits) that they have throughout the entire shop! Some works are even muraled directly onto the walls! Check it out...
After dropping off Sole Boutique's first FFB order, me and the Sole Boutique Crew headed out to Paloma Blanca. There, we didn't just stuff our faces with the delicious Mexican food, but we also got to know each other much better. We talked about how we operated our businesses, what drove us to start things up, future events we BOTH had in mind, family, friends, keeping in mind what / who to avoid, general life and most importantly... sharing stupid stories, goofing around and just having a good time!
I've been saying this ever since I started my brand...
"You gotta be cool with me to work with me because I don't wanna deal with ANY kind of asshole / conflict / or tension..." - LINK
That's why I make it a very important factor that I go and actually meet the owners of the shops that carry my line. I can't thank Julio, Fabby, B and ALL of San Antonio enough for taking the chance on FFB. I'm in complete awe that such a badass shop, run by such coolass people decided to give my brand a chance. They absolutely loved the box set I sent them and I told them that if they like that..."they haven't seen nothing yet!"
P.S. Don't forget to check out RANDOM to see what else I did while in San Antonio.
