Funky grafiti like design
Being infamously known for retailing boards and “skater boy” apparel and all the gear that goes along with the fad/sport, there was never really a reason for me to take notice of the Zoo York brand. That is until I saw the Zoo York shoes that my brother got for his girlfriend as a bon voyage gift, that got me interested enough.
A Zoo York store sat right beside TeamManila’s store at the Mall of Asia, so after rummaging through TeamManila’s closet I went next door to check out Zoo York’s. Though the clothing line failed to tickle my fancy, their sneakers made up for it’s lack of impression. Or maybe I was too taken with the shoes and therefore failed to admire the clothes. I’d have to go back one of these days so I can take a closer look at the clothing line.
Long story short, I went home with these Zoo York babies. I admit that the style is a bit too juvenile for the look that I usually go for. they’re the type of shoes you’d more likely see on a teener’s feet than that of a twenty something femme but like I said I’m a big fan of the fashion for the laid back and laxed.
Zoo York was established in 1993, a fashion that brings to the present the old skool graffiti style of the historical New York City grafiti art at the Zoo york Tunnel.
