Freshjive's been in the game since 1989 and they've always held off on shoe collaborations... until now. Enter etnies Plus.

I've never been interested in collaborations. I did this because of a very good friend who's been working at etnies Plus named Jannio Hidalgo,” said Rick Klotz, founder and owner of Freshjive. “The shoe has a really simplistic design, and I really like the way it came out.

Yeah, it's kind of a big deal, so we all had a party to celebrate at Freshjive's Reserve store in beautiful LA. Joey Altruda and his Cocktail Crew provided the soundtrack, while the store also showcased the photography of the legendary Herman Leonard.
