Video: DJ Neil Armstrong x DJ Clark Kent x Su-Yoon Shoes
Interesting. The shoes and the concept behind this video look book for Su-Yoon shoesthat Neil posted on his Hypebeast blog. It’s basically him, Clark Kent and a couple of long-legged lovelies cavorting around while the two DJ’s spin. Who said deejaying was a thankless job these days?
