Takehashi ~ dude is an old reggae head from Osaka... his dj/stage/performance name is 'zabiel'

I met him outside a trade show in Las Vegas last week, really like how he wears a chambray shirt with khaki shorts- that tank top under is of course my favorite piece. His wife made this special necklace for him. I want it, Someone make it for me please. A more substantial pair of espadrilles than i have been seeing on men in NYC.. not saying men should be wearing these when in the big city, but if you are going to, please wear one with a decent sole.. those skimpy ones, along with the thin soled sneaker (and im not speaking of vans or seavees here) are just not for the streets. Seeing guys in those skippies all summer makes me want to step into some timbs this fall.

I dig the hippie/Northeastern vibe. I agree about proper city shoes - I am always concerned for those in foam flip-flops walking in the streets or going into the perilous subway tunnels; those are dirty enough as it is, never mind that one wrong step could result in catastrophe.
