leave them all behind




the much-hyped "one time only" pack drops at alife rivington club on saturday. while there are a bunch of options to choose from (16 styles! fuck!) i think these three are definitely winners. especially want to get my grubby little hands on the wovens since i slept on the polka dots and hideouts.
