“Street culture in its globality represents everything for me, [and] cannabis has always had an inevitable crossover with that culture,” he says. “For this collaboration, I drew inspiration from the harmonious PAX device colors, which coincidentally were exactly the kind of subdued colors I usually use in my creations.

The drop debutted on the runway at Let There Be Light, a 4/20 fashion show at the newly opened, experiential House of Cannabis in SoHo, hosted by cult-favorite smokewear and cannabis brand Sundae School and presented by PAX. The show was interactive and crowd-sourced show, featuring the personas and creative stylings of real New York cannabis consumers and showcasing unprecedented designs inspired by the culture. The show benefitted the JUSTÜS Foundation.
