♥♥ LA-based sneaker co. KEEP has teamed up with Animal Collective to create the KEEP + Animal Collective Collection. The collab will benefit the Socorro Island Conservation Fund, a charity that supports the preservation of the Revillagigedo Archipelago off Baja, CA. All funds from the project benefit the organization – so start shopping! First up: Avey Tare‘s slip-on, a canvas high-top featuring Avey’s hand-drawn illustrations. For a limited time, you can pre-order from the KEEP site. Goods from the advanced sales will ship to you in March, plus you’ll get a cassette tape of unreleased tracks.
