Alvies x David Regone

David captures the character of a city block, or storefront like no one we’ve come across. Maybe it’s because he spent his early years working with New York Architecture firms? Either way, we’re glad he decided leave that racket behind, and chase illustration full-time. His meticulous renditions of some of our favorite dives around Austin drew us to him and his work. David currently lives and works both in Austin, TX, and on the road in his converted van/escape pod. Here is what he had to say about his boot design:

“The inspiration for my Alvies boot design came from my love of Cowboy culture and appreciation for the American Southwest. The boot displays a chili-pepper red bandana wrapped around the heel, functioning as a nod to the iconic symbol of a bygone era. The design is meant to be playful and add a bit of spice to one's step.”
