Tell us about your first pair of Dr. Martens:
The first time we bought a pair of Dr. Martens was in a vintage store in Paris. We had just been introduced to the idea of style and all the guys at this vintage shop had on Docs and they were so cool that we almost felt forced to buy something in the store! They had these old beat up burgundy ones that looked super rebellious which we thought was really cool at the time so we bought those.

What’s your favourite thing about the city you live in?
We love that Los Angeles is not an easy city to love (even though it seems that way through the media); it plays hard to get but living here gives you the time to take in and filter everything to finally enjoy the cliché ‘California Life’. 
 
What are the three tracks you’re listening to right now?
Sister Nancy – Coward of the Country
Chronixx – Capture Land
Alpha Blondy – Cocody Rock
