LIfeted Research Group !

As crazy as it may sounds this morning I woke up debating whether I wanted to rock LRG for the day or not. after putting the fit for the day together I changed my mind at the last minute, and for some reason I decided to rock a full LRG fit. As the day went by I got a text with the bad news that Jonas Bevacqua (Co-Founder of LRG) had passed away. I had the pleasure to meet Jonas and shake his hand at trade shows and at the headquarters, the numerous times we visited it.
For all of you who don't know about LRG and Jonas, let me tell you, he was one of the most inspiring persons I had ever met in my life, you could see and feel the positive energy and drive he had when you talked to him. Because of him and his partner Robert, the street wear and urban game change to what it is today. I enjoyed reading and watching his interviews, I could watch em over and over again and learn something new every time. I had the chance to see him for the last time couple weeks ago on my latest visit to the LRG headquarters, and the he seemed full of LIFE and energy, who would had thought that would be the last time I wold get to cross pads with one of the greatest.
Thanks you GOD for giving me the opportunity to meet such a great and inspiring person ( Jonas Bevacqua) he will be missed and I will always remember him by one my favorites quotes from him " enjoy this little thing called LIFE "RIP Jonas.








To one of the greatest, RIP Jonas Bevacqua, you will always be remembered.
