What’s a must-have clothing item everyone should own? A very strong jacket ( Sacai / kapital etc )
If you had to pick only one shoe currently in your closet to wear for the rest of your life, what would it be? Im tempted to say Suicoke or Birk cause since summer Iv been wearing these a looot but let’s say Nike Sacai Waffle white version. I’m wearing a lot of colorful clothes, so a white sneakers is the best.
Common Ace wants to uplift YOUR voice! The sadness of our world, is that Theres so many cause to fight for. List is unfortunately super long, but I would like to use my voice to talk about Immigrant rights, that are negligent all over the world. People tend to forget that immigrant are people, that have right. I’m horrified by how people don’t seems to see how bad the current situation is. But also why ? Why people take the risk to dye for ? People are drowning in the sea for better life, and EUROPE is closing eyes. It breaks my heart. I would use this, to encourage people to understand why, to read about the subject. There’s a great show : stateless that is talking about Immigration in Australia. Story and picture is amazing. I did cried a lot at the end, cause I’m unfortunately aware that’s not a fiction but indeed a reality for people today.
