Thom Browne Black Canvas Duck Boat PRIMIGI Shoes Bobbito Garcia edition of the Pro-Keds Royal Flash (Add-On) finally dropped today, and to kick off the release, Kool Bob Love himself embarked on a five store tour of sneaker shops that started in New Jersey and eventually worked its way across NYC. The first in-store destination was Packer PRIMIGI Shoes at noon, where a nice Pro-Keds Royal Flash display and some matching t-shirts were ready and waiting, along with a packed house anticipating Bobbito’s arrival. As soon as he walked in, he got right down to mixing it up with the crowd in his typical gregarious manner. After greetings and salutations, Bob quickly set up shop behind the counter and began putting the Sharpie to work.
In addition to Pro-Keds shoe boxes, the man of the hour was more than happy to tag up anything put in front of him. Some other signable items of note included old magazines, vinyl records and of course, copies of his book, Where’d You Get Those. In addition to providing John Hancocks to anyone who wanted one, the friendly and outgoing renaissance man was also happy to pose for photos and chat it up with all the event-goers. By the time Bobbito had to leave for the next in-store, everything was all autographed up, with a good percentage of the crowd either carrying a Bobbito x Pro-Keds Royal Flash box or rocking a pair on the spot. The green pair was the hot item of the day, but there are still some sizes in all three colorways still available at PackerShoes.
