LA trip

However, I'm not talking about the trip that I'm currently on. Last month or so me and L. Ruano took a 24 hour trip to LA. There was a book opening at Stussy LA for the ALL GONE book that Luis helped write. Then met with Dr. Romanelli, a crazy ass designer that does collabos with HUF all the time. Right now he's doing a comic with NASCAR about drivers. crazy stuff. Then we met with Edwin Ushiro, a Japanese American artist from the LA area. He took us out to this cosplay restaurant for lunch. Anyways. The trip started when we had to run to HUF to pick up some promo stuff, my car got a 83 dollar parking ticket and thrown up on a tow truck. Talked them to letting it down. Giant cock block on the start of our road trip. Then sat through 3 hours of traffic to get to the 580. Almost got in an accident on the 5 once we were in LA (not my fault surprisingly). Then at the end of the day, i still ended up getting a parking ticket. But they mailed that a few weeks later. Left at around 9pm and drove home all night till about 4am. Anyways. pictures below
