(GIRL) RED Presents Tuesday Lewman x Breana Geering

Tuesday Lewman once sold a grave-robbed gold tooth to buy a rare Lou Reed shirt. She collects school furniture, 1970s organs, and traffics in rare dolls. She has lived with an FBI agent, created a short film about Juggalo love, and published under the pseudonym Dottie Cranbrook.

To make the Breana Geering (RED) deck, Tuesday knit a nine-color striped panel, then embroidered the (RED) OG and Breana’s name to the graphic using the duplicate stitch technique. Inspired by the powerful role of fiber art in past and present AIDS activism, she hopes the Breana Geering x (RED) deck will spread the message of (RED) far and wide.

$4 of the retail price from each product will go to the Global Fund, with a minimum annual donation of $10,000. This donation will help strengthen healthcare systems and support equitable access to HIV testing and treatment in Sub-Saharan Africa. Find the capsule now at skateshops worldwide and HERE.
