Riku and Roxas inspired pants have been added to the shop!
After designing the Sora jeans, I wanted to do one for Roxas. His pants in-game reminded me of chaps worn by cowboys, I wanted to step away from that look and change it up a little.
Initial drafts of Riku's pants were very goth "Hot Topic" style; I drew in extra belts and giant pockets and extra metal glitz and glam. It was fun to draw, but a bit impractical for daily wear. :D I toned it down and kept smaller details for just enough edge and Riku-ness.
Did you know...?
In the first Kingdom Hearts games, Riku wore pants called "wading pants". These were generally used by folks who regularly walk in deeper waters (i.e. fisherman), implying Riku may also have done the same.
