Size Matters
Lastik Pabuç Shop Opens
Think that your old-fashioned pair of Converse is the height of fashion? Puh-leeze.
Now there is one shop to cure all your pedic desires: Lastik Pabuç opens today at Galata.
Though small in size (it’s at a corner place behind Galata Tower), the shop owned by Can (an ex-Harvey Nichols buyer and a serious sneaker aficionado) stocks names as big as Marc Jacobs, Givenchy and Balenciaga, as well as indie labels like ALife, Common Projects, Creative Recreation and some Nike Sportswear models never seen before.
A boy’s never complete without the right ‘headgear’, so Can and Deniz—the shop assistant and sneaker extraordinaire—also offer Super shades, Ruby helmets, waterproof hats by Kris Van Assche, plus Casio watches (gold for bling, silver for trendy effect).
Get your foot in the door and you’ll become a convert too.
