Collaborations are by far my favorite part of the design process. Connecting with people inside and outside of skateboarding — artists, athletes, brands — and seeing creativity through a different lens opens up new ways of thinking. These partnerships make me a better designer.
Designing custom shoes for Billie Eilish, in partnership with her stylist, is one of the standout projects of my career. It gave me a rare window into her personal style and creative vision, and translating that into a physical product was both a challenge and a privilege. Seeing her wear the final design in public remains one of the most rewarding moments of my career.
