  1. “I want to be an icon.”

    I want to be an iconoclast.

    “People! It’s time to focus on owning the streets again.”

    Tim, if so inclined, can you say more about this one?

  2. i’d definitely back a kickstarter hat campaign, depending on the hat. what type of hat? I would definitely wear a TJ-Y New Era 59Fifty. I’d own every colorway and match them with my Nike Dunks.

  3. hee hee: fuck yes, lily hoang.
