Pabs Pod

Welcome back! We had some technical difficulties with our last episode but you can find that on Youtube with our pals over at SRVD Chicago. This Episode is legendary we sat down with the owner of Lauredo Projects; Juliano Mata. I met Juliano at his pop up around 2021 after he dropped double knee pants & quarter zips, we had mutuals and I been a fan ever since. Juliano talks about his experience in the watch industry as well as losing a couple other jobs but always finding a way to get back to it. MAKE IT BACK. We find similarities in our cultures, being puerto rican & mexican he has had alot of support from both communities but noticed more Puerto rican support after making his Clemente Tee. I find out that he has been to Colombia multiple times which brings me joy, any chance I get to talk about my hometown I'll take it. Juliano is in the proccess of rolling out his latest pieces and has been taking the time to perfect his craft. You can shop with him at https://www.lauredoprojects.com/

A multi-media artist with a dark name but beautiful art, we cover how he started, what his family thinks of his name & how he came up with it.
