Vic Mensa on UGG Style

Talking about the evolution of UGG, Mensa says, “I like where the UGG brand is going. They’re open to trying new things and really pushing forward. When someone like me wears UGG, it’s kind of like repurposing the brand from its original concept, which was made for surfers. I think it’s dope that they’re taking new perspectives.”
