Here are some images of the new UNDFTD shop in Las Vegas. UNDFTD LV is a must visit if you’re in town, especially now since that Magic is just right around the corner. As you can see, UNDFTD keeps it clean and true to its theme of sports with their mural of James Worthy and their “PLAY DIRTY” Graphic on the wall. That illuminated UNDFTD Logo sign is impressive as well.
