Urban Doom

A saturnine mélange of subversive styles.

SHOES OFF
Removing one’s shoes is a deeply rooted tradition across many Asian and Middle Eastern cultures. Every visitor to a Japanese home, for example, will leave their shoes inside a genkan—a kind of porch with a raised border intended to prevent any negative ki (the equivalent of chi, or energy) from entering. The genkan also acts as a psychological gateway between the outside and inside worlds: As well as a mark of respect for the host, removing one’s shoes is symbolic of leaving one’s worries—as well as germs—at the door.
