Hot Rod is one of the best streetwear shops in L.A. and that’s no exaggeration. From their limited edition sneakers and apparel to their ridiculous partnership with the famous Bird Man of L.A. their owner, Cameron, knows his stuff.
They’ve got a ton of new merch and I’m almost hesitant to tell you about this because I [...]
