"I want a morphed animal, like something that can kill and something furry. You chose!"
Oh, super Tal . . . WTF
So Tal likes to wear unicorn shirts (see exhibit A. left) and trucker T's with underwater mystical animals on them (think dolphins with universe backgrounds) - but this request was impressive. Even for him.
But skater dudes are weird right? Right.
I started racking my brain for furry killer combos that would make a rad design. However the best my spent mind could come up with was a Rhino and a Bunny ::yawns:: Booooooring.
Perplexed I dropped the fuzzy fiend mammal idea and began to think outside the box. "What," I asked myself, "is mystical and heroic. A killing machine and yet a love maker, and fucking awesome?"
Then he came to me, standing in my psyche - hair blowing in the wind, mustache bold and blonde... half man, half horse. Gayer than gay, more mystical then most - and yet strangely erotic - The Centaur.
Boooya - Design idea = SOLID.
And the Centaur shoes were born into all their mystical glory. Hooray!! I hope you love them Tal, you crazy sonofa...
