S.W.C & Shikosabi Studio - Giveaway.
WIN a One-of-a-Kind Custom Dellow S-Strike, Reimagined by Shikosabi.
We've partnered with Shikosabi, an artisanal Indonesian fabric designer, to create a one-of-one version of our classic Dellow S-Strike silhouette.
This bespoke pair will be handcrafted just for you, in your selected size, and completely reworked by Shikosabi using reclaimed vintage denim. Known for his commitment to sustainable craft, Shikosabi breathes new life into old materials using traditional Japanese techniques such as Sashiko and Boro methods that celebrate imperfection, age, and resilience.
Rooted in the philosophy of Wabi-sabi — the beauty of imperfection and impermanence — this custom sneaker will feature carefully chosen fabric remnants stitched by hand. The Sashiko stitch, traditionally used to repair and reinforce denim, strengthens the layered construction while honouring the art of mending and storytelling through cloth.
Each panel is applied with care onto the original canvas upper, resulting in a completely unique piece that stays true to the iconic shape of the Dellow S-Strike, while embodying Shikosabi’s distinct aesthetic.

More About SHIkosabi Studio:
Shikosabi is a brand inspired by traditional Japanese techniques like Sashiko and Boro, created in response to the growing impact of denim waste and synthetic dyes. Our goal is to make sustainable, eco-friendly fashion that reduces waste and encourages mindful consumption.
We work closely with @omahpetrok, a weaving studio in Jepara, Indonesia, that uses natural dyes from ingredients like mahoni, indigo, and tingi. These natural dyes bring depth and meaning to each fabric, with names like Gilang Kehidupan (Radiance of Life) and Dewi Sri (Goddess of Prosperity), reflecting spiritual and cultural stories.
Using these textiles, we create unique clothing, shoes, and accessories from repurposed denim and other materials. With Sashiko and Boro stitching, we repair and strengthen fabrics, giving old materials a new life.
Through workshops and community events, we share the value of these techniques and promote a more thoughtful, sustainable approach to fashion.
At Shikosabi, every stitch tells a story — one of creativity, care for the planet, and connection to culture.
