Aminé

uh so people are able to read the book and know the um the graphic novel yeah to you know check out the graphic novel and know this story and that's what the artist did cool uh and then from that it was just awesome because then it it blossomed to for me getting to know more people in the community sven still woozy uh he's amazing artist here in portland i was a fan of his music and then getting to know him and work with him was really cool.

And, uh, of course, Portugal, the man's on it and Amine, it really feels like, wow, this ended up being this great gumbo of the music in portland right now

yeah absolutely it's like definitely hitting a lot of a lot of different styles from those people you mentioned for sure

yeah and it's cool because like it's eclectic

240 pairs for a worldwide release is, yeah, I...

It's gonna be very hard to get this pair, but you know, people complaining about it might forget that the original, like, Action Bronson 990 V6 or the original Aminé 610, they were all incredibly limited as well.

So that's kind of the strategy when you are doing a first collaboration.

It's tough to gauge what the, what the people want, and I think limited release is probably the way to go so that you can be guaranteed to sell out.

I would probably put the 610 and then maybe the Mini Mus third, after the 2000.

But, uh, I think, yeah, that's kind of where I would put it, and then this one, if it is as good as it looks in the pictures, I think this one will jump straight to the top because it's just, you know, it's a made in USA 992, and that kind of deserves top spot in, you know, most people's lists.

So yeah, excited to see what Aminé is gonna be doing.

The, uh, the Portland rapper, he always has a great collaboration and a great artistic eye when it comes to New Balance shoes.
