What is the board with the Japanese writing on the base and the small swallowtail, glimpsed at the very end of this new Mine 77 promo clip on instagram?:michaelangelo wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2024 10:24 am Smaller drop, 3 outerwear kits, tote bag, insulated hoody and a puffer. 2/3 of the outwear kits aren’t that bad, but 99% of EL/old heads prob won’t be into any of it.
