A few weeks ago, Starter jackets started dropping on the doorsteps of various people in the industry. For a time there, it was a steady flow of jackets. After the well dried up and no HYPEBEAST x Starter Jacket arrived, I tore the office apart in a fit of rage and cried myself to sleep for consecutive nights on this indirect dis. However that all changed when low and behold our own Starter jacket showed up. I spent that night fornicating to the soft silky feel of the jacket. Awaking from their slumber, Starter is set to kick things off with a bang next year. Thanks to Starter for the jacket.
