    I am thinking it may be silk printed or something..

      Carol Christian Poell. He never received a patent for the tanning process and it has since been done by other such as BBS and Hermes.

          I'm sure many of you see the SS 2009 vibes, right? The gradients and whatnot looks to be more tyvek bonded to leather. I really loved this collection. Any more info on the eye and hair motifs?

            its like youre missing the entire point...

            if you want regular looking adidas shoes, i'm sure every city in your country has an adidas store you can walk into

              Read my post again a few times until you're clear on what I was saying

                Sorta figured, but thought maybe something back further. Those shoes are beautiful. Thanks!

                    Maybe applying this to clothing, but I can remember my parents had translucent lampshades made from pigsleather (quite aweful and western )

                    So I think the technique is very old, but recently (last few decenia) applied to clothing and accessories.

                      End the pissing contest on transparent leather origins!

                      Any boot close ups?

                        The shirt is water snake.

                          ^That explains the uniformity (there are no breaks in the wider scales). I'm sure the smoothness of water snake helps with the transparent treatment/tanning as Hermes did a transparent jacket out of alligator(or croc).

                          Really crazy to see transparent snake be a real thing.

                            In other words the shirt will be out of my price range.

                              Thank god, I don't think I could bear another page of conjecture on shirt material.
