Dizygotic Project Alpha (Momotaro “Peach Boy” Pack) “Makoto” Review
Dizygotic is a new, independent sneaker brand that produces shoes inspired by their name – same but different. This debut “Momotaro Pack” is dropping two colourways of their Project Alpha silhouette, and I’m reviewing the “Makoto” edition which features artwork by Japanese tattoo artist Makoto Horimatsu. Inspired by the Japanese folklore hero, Momotaro, this pair has a ton of little easter eggs and is full of quality materials!
