The skate company is well-known for pumping out quality shoes (in fact they're right near the top), but rarely have they been known for collaborating with street artists -- until now of course. The Jun Cha C1RCA Hatchet Shoe brings in the renowned tattoo/graffiti artist to work on the latest line of footwear entitled 'The Black Tear Project.'
As with every product an artist puts out, there is always a profound meaning behind it. In the case of the Jun Cha C1RCA Hatchet Shoe, he says the theme here is "the transition from death and sacrifice to freedom and growth of one's true roots." Deep. Any shoe that looks like the human circulatory system is okay by me.
