I have a hard time coping with loss because I have an even harder time being serious about things. Just the way I am, I guess. So, when I lost my grandfather a few months back, it was really tough on me. I didn’t want to talk about it. I didn’t want to think about it. I wanted distractions. Things that didn’t make me think about him. Then I caught glimpse of these ERKN. Article 002 Shoes and all I could think about was that I was sure my grandpa would like these just as much as I do. The hand-stitched detailing. The supple Italian leather. The orthopedic-like wedge soles. Even the shoe horn that comes with them to help put them on. These are a pair of shoes he could get behind. We could get behind. They aren’t a distraction. They are a lasting reminder of a great man that I truly miss.
