“I branched off into sneakers because I finally got a sneaker that was custom-made for me… I started adding platforms to the bottom of my sneakers that I would wear all the time and after that I brought it to Puma and we started with the Creeper, our first partnership, and now we brought it back because it’s been like the biggest demand from our fans and our consumers… Now we just we made it bigger, we made it phatter, and we made it better.”
“I mean, the Creeper is especially exciting because it’s a sneaker, but it still gives you height, so it’s like you don’t have to wear a heel but you’re still comfortable.”
“For me, comfortability has been important for me ever since I got pregnant and definitely running around behind kids.”
