Ken Diamond Moccasins
Vancouver local, Ken Diamond was just featured in a small piece on Jeff Hamada’s blog, booooooom.com. Ken is known for his work with leathers, hand dying, and hand stitching. He constructs every piece himself, all aspects of the design, all in his East Vancouver studio. He has gained some notoriety from his particularly dope moccasins. For men and women, he makes some of the nicest leather moccasins on the market. He has also done shelved projects for Creative Recreation along with a couple other collaborations. His work is of the highest quality. I’ve seen people so sad about losing their Ken Diamond Moccasins they post it on Craigslist that when their house was broken in, the moccasins are all they want back. Jeff Hamada was able to grab some great photos of Ken, his work, and his space. Definitely worth checking out here.

Damn, the ones pictured are hot. Didn’t know about the guy at all.
By the way, the new layout of the blogs looks a lot worse, it was perfect the way it was. No hate, just constructive criticism.
Your version does makes a better story Ryan but my moccasins were stolen from third beach, in the light of day. However if my house was broken into and my new pair stolen, you can bet your ass I’d supplement a street search with some Craigslist posting.
You do not want to loose a pair of these shoes, they are made amazingly and with love.
