Bali Correspondence:

Woke up this foggy morning to an email from IndoSole's Bali marketing manager, Clemens. The message was brief and concise.

"Hey guys, I have been kicking it and flowing Indo product to this local Balinese kid named Mega Semadhi. Here's a recent photo of him at Desert Point. Cheers!"

Re-Purposed Synergy

IndoSole values the mechanics and efficiency of two wheeled transportation. Whether it's a ten block bicycle ride to the produce market or an urban motorbike exploration through SF, we get our fix on two wheels.

Dylan Bigby may possibly bleed chain grease. He and I first met in 2006 while we studied at San Francisco State University. It wasn't a classroom introduction, but rather it was our shared stoke to build fixed gear bikes and mash around the SF streets. It's a rad coincidence that once we obtained our degrees at SFSU, the passion for riding on rubber tires inspired us to devise a lifestyle project that re-purposes worn down tires.

Dylan Bigby is the founder of Retired Belts.

IndoSole is grateful to have some rad retail support across the stars and stripes nation and even the globe. However, there's nothing like a good neighbor that you regularly see in the lineup or at the local pizza joint. Aqua Surf Shop is an establishment of creative minded folks that IndoSole profoundly respects. They were family before Indo product was introduced onto their shelves..well..maybe even before our entire mission was conceptualized.



The two wise owls behind Aqua Surf are Aleks Petrovitch and Devin Dargell. These dudes don't care whether you shred or trim the high line; as long as you have a grin on your face and have a full tank of stoke. Aleks was recently interviewed by the kool kats over at Korduroy TV. Mr. Petrovitch is a multi-tasking machine so please read this interview and check out his other ingenious projects when away from Aqua.

If you are visiting the San Francisco area or a resident who has never been into Aqua Surf Shop, make this shop a mandatory stop and throw dem a mega shaka. Tell em IndoSole sent you!

Happy Independence Day Indonesia!



August 17 1945 is a day in history when all Indonesian nationals were able to unite under one unified flag for the first time. Indonesians endured much strife right up to their day of liberation from Dutch rule so we're showing some respect and love to the ancestors within our Indo family. IndoSole's handy man, Jeremy Urone, is whipping up a mean pot of soto ayam along with his classic Nasi campur to celebrate the day so either get crafty in da kitchen or get some grinds at your local Indo joint.

Spencer made another awesome video for the Reprocessing series. This time he made shelves for our San Clemente showroom out of salvaged wood. Watch it to learn more about this process, check out the end product, and see how clever our Spencer is.
