Sapeurs sometimes do that and they love Yohji Yamamoto and to a lesser extent CdG. People who stop me in the street to say "nice Margiela jacket" or whatever are usually Congolese.

Can't believe any stores actually even bought those shoes but hey, I guess that guy is the example that there is someone out there for everything. They do fit a bit differently on him than I was imagining but the first thought that came into my head was that if anyone was driving, they'd have to carry an extra pair of shoes because no way that's fitting in a standard car.
Even more odd is the pricing, I would expect a higher price due to the additional materials used yet they cost hundreds less than the more conventional footwear.

I know it seems like an interstellar leap to go from making clothes-shaped objects to other object-shaped objects, but if you have the mind for it and the passion for esoteric materials it's kind of a logical progression.
Similarity to Sruli is always a wonderful thing in my book, unless you're averse to ostrich leather dick sacks.
