Ticho is BACK to Talk Østmo x Iron Boots' Lore—and Next Step

The one and only Tichoblanco, aka Tichoblancoshoes, aka just plain old Ticho, is BACK. 

Where’s he been?Well he’ll tell ya all about that. What’s he been up to? The biggest answer to that is: happily grinding on his Østmo x Iron Boots project along with Cheng and Kai from Iron Boots, and Østmo boots mad genius maker Lars Jensen. 

Lars was actually our first-ever guest on this show, back at a time when he was still making any boot he wanted, in any size, and any leather, and getting hundreds of people to enter a lottery for it. The power of Lars.

Ticho’s here to recount his personal story of meeting Lars even before all THAT, and how their pan-oceanic friendship eventually birthed one of the cooler and most unique ongoing collaborations out there anywhere—which is about to hit an entirely new level, one you’ll be able to see up close at Boot Camp 2025 Chicago this November. Yes we’ll talk about that too. 

Here’s the man they call Tichoblanco, on the Shoecast.
