Koibito colourways

The past couple of weeks, we see images of Yoskay Yamamoto's Koibito colourways popping up, with the latest all-black popped up via. Vinyl Pulse today which would be available at the coming SDCC (released by Munky King and limited to 150 pieces)




Yoskay said via Munky King:

"Once upon a time I had a goldfish named Tuna. But he passed away because of my laziness and mistreatment... .So I painted him for his memory...

But at same time Koibito symbolizes the sense of alienation that I felt growing up in Cali.... .It's kind of like the phrase "fish out of water".... I felt and still feel like I don't completely fit in my environment... both in Japan and the US..."

It does remind me of my own experiences. I suppose I know how that feels, to a certain extent.
