The fact that Ro Spit is taking this leap with a leading role in an indie film speaks volumes about his dedication to art and his willingness to explore uncharted territories.
Despite embracing various avenues for self-expression, he affirms that being a sneaker designer remains the most fulfilling venture of all his talents. He specifically highlights the significance of his Jordan brand collaboration with Two18 in 2022, considering it the highlight of his extensive resume. “The Jordan project was beyond anything. There’s only a handful of people in the world that has ever done that.” he said.
The collaboration catapulted Ro’s already famous Burn Rubber brand to new international heights with the unveiling of his custom Jordan 2 Low shoe.
The film premiere drew a long line of enthusiastic fans, and it has garnered excellent feedback from moviegoers.
