"We’ll work with his family and we’ll support his kids…"
Trots att Nipsey Hussle som bekant tragisk gick bort i slutet av mars finns det fortfarande många som håller hans arv vid liv och en rad ofullständiga projekt som ska färdigställas. Ett av dom är rapparens samarbete med Puma och enligt varumärkeschefen Adam Petrick ämnar man gå vidare med deras partnerskap för att hedra Nipsey. Under Wall Street Journals festival “Future of Everything” sa han om samarbetet med Nipsey Hussle:
“He was somebody that was doing great stuff, and he had this idea about how he could improve the community and how he could push for that… The concept of working with Nipsey just made sense.”
Om deras gemensamma kollektioner sa han mer specifikt:
“We had a lot of things that were coming, and hopefully a lot of things we will still do with his estate. We’ll work with his family and we’ll support his kids… We’re going to continue to release some product that we’ve created with him. We’ve also got some charity activations that we’ll do to support what he was doing in Crenshaw, and trying to continue the work that he was doing through his foundation.”
Kort innan sin död annonserade Nipsey en samarbetskollektion mellan Puma och hans märke The Marathon Clothing som var tänkt att släppas hösten 2019. Men de hade redan innan det en långtgående relation då han varit involverad i kampanjer för bland annat skon RS-X “Trophies” och Pumas kollektion med Coogi.
