Purple Martin - 9M
I love purple martins - they’re just incredibly interesting and unique birds, and my dad used to tell me all about them when I was a kid.
They’re one of the few animals who relies exclusively on human-made structures for nesting. Their conservation story is, like the American alligator, a rousing success and depended entirely on average people like you and me building places for them to live in all across North America.
So I decided to make these shoes as a tribute to these amazing animals.
