Wow.It's been a while as always... I don't even know what to say..CORRECTION: I don't even know what to say "on this blog that everyone reads publicly both good and bad".We took a little breather and didn't overthink anything.Everything you see that has come out of HH has been one person with very little help.It was supposed to be a different kind of run, but it ended up crazier and more influential than even I suspected.
We ran across all sorts of hardships and made do with what was available. Every fan made us into what we are and continue to do so even now...while shirts are sold out and marked as 895 dollars.You guys are still putting in work.
I have been a bit tight lipped about all of our projects and with good reason.There is no fun in giving away a great surprise and even less fun in sharing what you feel or put your passion into while dealing with both scrutiny,anxiety,and possible weirdness that goes alongside having your brand watched by many, including other brands.It's just not fun, but it's kind of how we rock.Sorry for not giving away more,at least not yet.
Back to things that matter.We are alive.There is new vision,a sense of calm and clarity is finally starting to make things less chaotic and it really just feels super nice to be dealing with all of you that mess with the brand or even just watch from afar.
I have run into kids on the street,in stores,or just via email that I would have never expected to know about or follow HH.It was kind of bunk to skip Christmas and fall altogether.But to be honest, it was necessary.
I don't share much of the process that goes into making HH work behind the scenes, but it's super tough. It takes a ton of energy to make amazing things and there isn't a lot of room for error when it is dealt with mostly via one person. Shipping,printing,design,admin,concepts... it all adds up and with little assistance, it can eat you up if you let it(no pun).
So, in short, we took a bit of time to rest,and also reflect.There have been a ton of you that just want gear like "NOW" and that is awesome,super thankful for all of you.But, once again, just had to make sure it was the right time, energy,and place to do our best work.
There is a ton planned for 2014 and for those of you that want tidbits into what we are working on.Make sure to get on the mailing list,twitter,and Instagram.This blogging thing is awesome beyond belief,but it always goes by the wayside once the big projects hit... I will just leave it at that ...for now.
Anyways, happy new year.Expect to hear more..and just hang tight. We are going to take things a bit farther than you will ever expect...higher as well. Here's to spacing out in 2014!!
