Creative Recreation - Rollie is RAD







The graffiti is from Silverstrand trip this weekend. The shoes are the Creative Recreation Milano Hi Dark Emerald

Creative Recreation is one of the raddest shoes we carry at bluebee.com. Rollie our Rep was awesome enough to answer a few questions I had about him, his job and the label.

ME What about fashion right now has gotten you super fired up? This can relate to men's fashion, shoes, chicks fashion, whatever has caught your eye and you thought to yourself "that is AWESOME" or if it is nothing that is totally cool too. I know it happens.

ROLLIE The only brand in fashion that I have been purchasing recently is Rick Owens and Rick Owens DRKSHDW. If you check out the line you will see that many designs are using his touches on their collections.

ME How did you get to where you are today? What brought you into fashion. What is keeping you here?

ROLLIE I started with Nordstrom then the Closet next MK Sportswear next to VOS Showroom and finally to Creative Recreation. I was always been interested in the way people dress, whether it was good or terrible I was interested. The reason I stay is the freedom I have to be myself.

ME What is the RADDEST thing/fact about Creative Recreation.

ROLLIE That we have a shoe for every person, every age, from every walk of life.

ME What is the coolest part about your job besides getting to meet people?It could even be that they have Rockstar energy drinks in the fridge at work. (I am personally working to get a ping pong table in the warehouse. I am a table tennis MASTER!)

ROLLIE The best part of my job is our crew. We have so many personalities from every age and somehow we all find a way to be great friends. We all have tons of fun together.

Thank you Rollie for letting me pick your brain! If you want to check out how RAD Rollie rocks his style click here where he is showing the Fall 09 Creative Recreation line.
