To the organisers, I’ve tagged you all, but honestly… this doesn’t happen without you. The planning, the time, the behind-the-scenes mahi that no one sees. We see you, and we appreciate you more than you know x

Just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported the She Fades x Hope Is My Homeboy collaboration.
From the people who ordered a piece, shared a post, visited the barbershop, or simply showed love. It all means more than you know.
This drop was about more than clothing. It was about community, safe spaces, and celebrating the people who hold others up every day.
Big love to Jess and the .way_she.fades crew for trusting us with this collaboration, and to Isaac Te Reina from for capturing the story so beautifully.
Grateful for every single one of you.
Two days left to place your order whānau 🩷🖤
A lot of thought went into this design. Every detail was chosen with meaning behind it and what this collaboration represents.
