What we do and how we do it so well

Tired of t-shirts that are uncomfortable and don't fit individual personalities, we were searching for something fresh and unique. We finally found what we were looking for but the brands that sold the clothing were high end, exclusive, and expensive. So, with this in mind, we made it our goal to solve this problem as well as others and create a high-end, exclusive, and inexpensive clothing brand that would cater to the consumer. Masculine, Feminine, Black, White, Purple, Green or whatever you want to call it, we are a little bit of everyone and everything. We represent hype beasts, sneaker heads, high society, the fashionable, the jocks, fixie fiends, the British, the world traveler, trend-setters, the consumer and whomever else you can think of. We are a little cocky and we have the vision, but to be in the business of making clothing you have to be a little out there. To put it in perspective...we are not out there, we are right here and we are right now.
Great personal style is made up of a certain percentage of "always" items and methods, mixed with a certain percentage of "sometimes" fashions, and a certain percentage of "nevers". -Scott Schuman

Taking Things Into My Own Hands

So, after an unfruitful Monday of trying to find a worthy pair of shoes at my local mall, a couple stores, and every online vendor I could find, I was fed up. Everything I found had been done a million times or just wasn't me. I was impressed by some Nike 6.0s I saw in a local Journey's, and always had a sort of secret crush on Onitsukas, but nothing clicked. Then a friend** made me realize, the only way to really get something that's me is to just do it myself. So, in spirit of what we're trying to do here I purchased some waterproof Sharpies and these:
I'm going to be custom designing these things with whatever comes to mind. I was thinking of going with a Sun and Moon kind of design, with one shoe for each side. But the point of this story is that if these shoes turn out aright and you guys like the finished product, I've been considering making custom shoes another service offered by Ursa. Though it might take a little more time to get those out to you since we need to do each by hand, let us know what you think.

UPDATE: After a day of work, here's what I have to show:

    These are coming along. I'll keep posting updates on them as I get more done, but the moral of the story is that if we start offering this service the shoes are going to take a little time to get done. Sorry, but it's a process. And shoes are the most awkwardly shaped things in the world.
