I was telling @virgilabloh about @purevnv and how I used the creative session to create a rough draft of what a collaboration w/ the @nike Air Force 1 could look like. It’s not the greatest but it’s a start… a first draft if you may. The best part to me was writing “Dream” and “Future” on the insoles -to indicate our aspiration to co-create India’s first country-specific release. He said that he too used to dream of doing a collaboration w Nike and he got it. He proceeded to sign the shoe “VNV” and asked me to keep it on display at the store. Come by and see it and share with us some ideas of what you would “dream” to see of a “future” collaboration of!
