The Merch
Rough Trade Record Store Day 2024 exclusive capsule in collaboration with Jeremy Jones.
Born and based in London, Jeremy has forged a unique identity in his paintings, illustrations and skateboarding. He refined his talents whilst teaching urban art courses at a west London gallery before going on to assisting a contemporary pop artist. His creative influences stem from childhood comics like The Beano and the expressive “wildstyle” letterforms found in graffiti.
Limited Edition t-shirt and tote bag will be available in-store from Saturday 20th April.
