The Bite Magazine - Autumn/Winter 2021 - Issue 30

biteshoes In a White/Graffiti Print, the Basquiat Manual Slip-On Shoes provide another blank canvas for the late artist’s unique vi- sion. The bold artwork on this shoe elevates the classic vul- canised style and stands out from anything else on the mar- ket. It has a speciality printed canvas upper construction, timeless deconstructed upper, IMPACT-ALG footbed that provides cushioning and outsole with the DC pill and her- ringbone tread patterns. A true representation of Basquiat’s achievements, the Man- ual High-Top Shoe in Black/Military Camo or Multi is an exclusive offering that features 21 different pieces of his art placed across the 21 different panels on the shoe. You may find that the Multi has a more striking look than the Black/ Military shoe that will transform you into a walking art on foot. These shoes have the same feature as the Manual Slip- On and come with an exclusive Basquiat shoe bag. With its faux leather upper and printed design, the Basqui- at Slider Sandals in Black/Dark Grey Print bears the artist’s signature artwork on a comfy EVA sole. Taking inspiration from DC’s early 2000s skate heritage, Basquiat Hybrid Suede in Black Multi blends the Lynx OG upper with the Legacy OG sole. It has premium suede and sublimated canvas upper materials, tongue stash pocket, elasticated straps, clear 3D rubber TPR quarter logo, injected TPU (Thermoplastic Pol- yurethane) outsole logo and arch in the midsole. To complete the collection, there are three t-shirts availa- ble: Evil Thoughts in Black with a screen-printed DC logo on the pocket and Basquiat’s iconic ‘Evil Thoughts’ artwork on the back. Cipher in White also has the iconic DC Star Logo on the front and the artist’s signature artwork printed on the back andWoodland Camo t-shirt is designed with the screen-printed DC logo on the pocket and Basquiat’s iconic artwork on the back. All three are made from mid-weight cotton fabric, classic fit and crew neckline. DC Shoes also feature shoes and apparel for women and children as well as snowboard boots, jackets, pants and other accessories for men, women and children.
