GLOBE MACE HI X SEKURE D

It's a proud moment when we see one of our original sneaker freaks get his own shoe collaboration, even more so for the fact that this truly talented artist can now be exposed beyond the realms of just footwear. Sekure D has been banging away at his craft for a long minute, and we can gladly say ‘we knew him when’. Utilising Globe’s Mace Hi model as his canvas, Sekure has created an airbrushed slice of heaven that will have skaters, customisers and cool cats wanting to cop a pair, or two! Check for these to drop Dec 1st at all good stores! Check out our interview with Sekure D here.

GLOBE MACE HI X SEKURE D 

GLOBE PRESS RELEASE

In our ongoing pursuit of collaborating with artists, musicians, DJs and bands, Globe has gotten together with an artist who we feel is truly of the moment, original and representative of where street art is headed. His name is Sekure D and he is one of Australia’s burgeoning new artists taking his penchant for graffiti art and applying it to the canvas of shoe customization. Sekure D is now a well-known designer in Australia.

Growing up surrounded by a culture that didn’t encourage his art, Sekure D covertly practiced his works for years before being contracted to co-ordinate the interior design and painting of various basketball and hip-hop shops within Melbourne. His work began with web-graphics and custom signatures, which enabled him to develop an attention to detail and patience, required in the field of clothing customization. Being a dedicated collector of rare footwear, Sekure D formed an appreciation of the importance of style, uniqueness and quality of finish critical for a shoe to outlast current fashion and to surpass common trends or fads.

Untamed by theme or style, Sekure D blends graphics, symbols and text within an underlying current of street art to craft a design of lasting integrity. He has also had his work on display at the National Gallery of Victoria Exhibition in Melbourne. Sekure D’s has said, 'The final achievement for any sneaker customizer would be to one day work with a leading footwear company.' Globe is proud to be the partner in this collaboration and announce the Globe Limited Edition Sekure D shoe. We’ve provided our Mace Hi model as his canvas and he’s turned them into a Limited Edition work of art. You’ll probably want two pairs, as you will want one pair to rock and the other to display!
