Walking on Lafayette I ran into some of the Needles/Nepenthis/Engineered Garments fellas. Had a few of them bare their soles. Of their socks that is. Coincidentally I ran into them again the next day in the shoe dept. of Brooks Brothers…

A quick backshot to see their bags…

These are some old Needles Birkenstock I think. Thyre beyond amazing. Look at that sole, That hardware!


The next day, outside Brooks Brothers uptown.
