Set Your Style

I met Jeremy a years ago during the MTV Toy event at the Milano Design Week. I previously knew and enjoyed his works but after I met him I felt in love with all his awesome t-shirts (they suite me perfect), sketchel bags and his Sketchel project book. He is a very kind guy and the night before he left Italy he gave me one of his tee “I love Venice” and he also drew a special t-shirt for me! At the moment Jeremy is in Rome for Mondo Pop Money Lisa Show, you can get more info about the show in his website.
In the interview I asked him to tell us something he’s never said… So let’s read the interview.

TELL US SOMETHING YOU’VE NEVER SAID.
I once squashed a baby mouse when I put my foot into my shoe. I wore the shoe all day to university, I did not know it was in there until later when I took the shoe off, but I felt a strange lump in my shoe all day.
