@l8loomer 15 year old me would be trippin right now. 😭 Growing up, a fresh pair of Timbs for school was everything. Now I’m making them out of clay. This was an incredible challenge for me! my first time ever making a boot and I’m so happy it got to be with a brand as iconic as @Timberland. 🥾✨ #pottery #potterylove #potteryart #ceramics #potterystudio

Day 35 Of Throwing Pottery Until My People Find Me

here is the final product
Name a boot more iconic. Timberland has been a part of my life since I was a child. Like, where I'm from, your wardrobe was not complete until you had a brand new pair of weak tendons to go back to school in. And I would spend, like, the first week of school walking extremely stiff, trying not to crease up the toe box. So when Timberland hit me up and said they wanted to collab, I knew I wanted to do something that honored my childhood. This is my first time ever attempting to make a shoe, so y'all please go easy on me. But I wanted to keep that original feel of the boot. Throw my little razzle dazzle in tier, bringing it to my ceramic world while still keeping it functional. That was very important to me. After about eight hours of manual labor and a lot of back pain, here is the final product. Let me know what you guys think in the comments.
