Statement

Billy is my brother. So, I'm made in Vietnam. I think potentially from rubber, leather, cotton, polyester. I like the sun. I don't like the rain because I get quite damp inside. I've lived in England, in Worthing and Oxford and now in Bolzano. And the fun fact, I mean. Interesting. I lived in a in a garage for a few months outside with many other old shoes from my sibling’s well from my owner’s sibling's childhood. So why I would like to be the the leader? So I feel like maybe old shirts and pants get a lot of representation in terms of old garments and maybe old shoes not so much. So I think it's important to bring this to the debate. Also, I'm looking to be repaired soon and I think this repairing policy is something I'd like to work towards I’m also open to collaboration on this. So if there's someone that wants to also work on that repairing policy, this is something that I would like to look at. Yeah, that is everything.
