The Stash & Sebago Beacon Boot Spring 2011

— January 18, 2011 — Fashion
Graffiti artist Stash has hooked up with Sebago to put his own unique touch on the Beacon Boot. The Stash Sebago & Beacon Boot is designed with a paint-splashed upper panel, paying tribute to Stash's graffiti art.

I really love what Stash has done here. The Beacon Boot on its own is eye-catching enough, but the added drops of paint up the cool factor and add some much needed color. The Stash Sebago & Beacon Boot comes in five different colorways and should hit stores sometime in February.
