Had the chance to work with my childhood hero @clarenceseedorf alongside @xavisimons for the latest Filling Pieces x JET project, leading up to the UEFA Champions league final.
A full circle moment for a kid from Suriname, growing up in The Netherlands.
Thank you @lixingvanrijn and @weareonenil for the trust!
Commewijne Spirit Clubhouse
My parents always taught me to never forget where Iām coming from.
At a young age, I visited Suriname, the birthplace of both my parents and a place deeply rooted in my life, personality, and career. Since then, Iāve always felt the desire to find a meaningful way to give back to the place Iām from.
Today marks the beginning of a bigger life goal: creating a space and initiative that can bring positive change to local communities, empowering and amplifying local talent.
Together with Klabu and Community Tennis Suriname, we proudly present the Commewijne Spirit Clubhouse and Tennis Court, supported by Onās Right to Run.
This was made possible by everyone who supported our Unity For Suriname releases during Keti Koti.
Excited for what the future holds.

Portugal has played a vital role in everything we work towardāboth as a brand and for me personally.
I remember it like it was yesterday: flying into Porto to explore where we could bring our ideas for footwear to life.
Fast forward ten years, and our relationship with the people, culture, and country has become a cornerstone of what weāve built.
For our upcoming Spring/Summer 2025 collection, titled āUnited by Generationsā, there was no better place than Portugal.
Entirely street-cast and modeled by the real people of PortugalāBridge the Gap.
Obrigado, Portugal, do fundo do meu coração šµš¹
