Derek and Peter and chat with bespoke shoemaker Seiji McCarthy.

Seiji McCarthy, an American bespoke shoemaker based in Tokyo, carved an unconventional path into the world of bespoke shoemaking after a career in the NBA. He makes some of the most unique shoes in the world.

We spoke with him about his work as a bespoke shoemaker, his take on American style, and why Japan has so many artisans.
