About this video

Sacawa presents a comprehensive tour of his personal footwear collection, organizing approximately 55-56 pairs of shoes across six categories: oxfords and derbies, monk straps, loafers, boots, Chelsea boots, and sneakers. He discusses the brands, colors, versatility, and styling applications of each shoe, sharing insights into his purchasing decisions and how individual pieces fit into his overall aesthetic.
