He did! Bringing espadrilles for all!
Photographer to the Gods, Photo Editor at the mightiest mag of them all, The Surfer’s Journal, Jeff Divine has a new collaboration out with Soludos, slipper provider to yoga moms and stylish, albeit somewhat lazy-looking, men the world over (buy here)!
Today Soludos’ regular newsletter arrived in my inbox via my lady, who keeps buying Soludos despite their constantly falling apart, letting her down. (But they are so cute, she protests, and she is right.).
The newsletter is all salt-weathered wood, bright blues so crystal clear, so sparkly. And these adorable little slippers featuring Mr. Divine’s iconic work: the beach scene at Pipe. The crowd at Waimea jockeying and jostling. A photo I’ve seen before but can’t place, titled “Big Wave” but which is really not that big of a wave at perhaps Sunset?
But perhaps most fun of all, Jeff has a post on Soludos blog, with “10 of his favorite subjects”, each accompanied by ripe little descriptive sentences.
Like this one, describing a rainbow haloing Pipeline in all its glory “Sometimes the trade winds will blow the rain laden cloud cells through with the sun illuminating and rainbows appearing one after another.”
Beautiful!
Anyhow, these espadrilles aren’t the worst thing I’ve ever seen. I mean, I wouldn’t wear them. But I wouldn’t be offended if you did! And surely we can call celebrate anything that puts money in Mr Divine’s pockets!
