Ian Berry on Stridewise on Youtube
It was great to have Nick English of Stridewise come and visit Ian Berry in his London studio.
They spoke of all kinds of things connected to Ian Berry’s work and especially his medium, denim. Nick ends the interview by saying ‘It’s my favourite thing I’ve done in England,’ so have a watch at the enjoyable conversation.
The Manhattan-based journalist with reporting experience on four continents, published in Vice, Men's Health, Popular Science, and a bunch of other places visited London from his Brooklyn base. He’s a ravenous consumer of anything and everything related to high end men's boots.
Stridewise with its large YouTube following is where he nurtured a maniacal obsession especially with footwear but also what goes with it, like raw denim! He shares his findings on his numerous channels and you should have a look.
While in London he also visited @blackhorselane and @denimhistory and you can see all on the YouTube channel Stridewise
