“KEEP IT 100”
As we check-in to one of London's newest hotels ‘100 Shoreditch’, our expedition is taken hostage by the Pearson sandal. "I’ll take white you take black - you be Yin and I’ll be Yang”. 100 miles and counting - we invite you to get ready with us.
“UNORTHODOX FASHION"
Fashion has always been embedded into our names F L A G: Fashion Lives, Age Grows. Whilst getting ready for the turnup, we begin to reminisce on our fashion journey so far. Originating from Peckham, dressing ‘unorthodoxly’ was always a hesitant feeling. Not wanting to fit in but wanting to be accepted. Bold tones and wearing things differently is part of the 46 chromosomes each which make us.
“Did someone say socks and sandals give girls the ick? Not in our world.”
The Team: MSM FC - The Stadium: Rooftop @ 100 Shoreditch. Inspecting the grounds before “kick-off” is always a good excuse for us to have a pre-party before anyone else enjoys with us.
“23 x 2 = 46”
To understand the 46 chromosomes which make up FLAG, you need to understand the 23 which make each of us. Kevin for the most part is the leader of this collective. Fiery, stylish but most importantly confident. Karlon is the 70s-influenced smooth operator. Mr Fix-It, the bond which ties this ‘chemical reaction’ together we call being a twin.
“THE CONDUIT"
Up and down, never left but always on the right path. Our life has been like a lift - the conduit to the next destination. Always going up.
20 MILES TO GO
“NEVER TOO HUMBLE”
They say the more up you get, the more your Uber bill explodes. We beg to differ. Taking the bus has always been an integral part to any London journey - 2 stops to the park won't hurt.
“100 MILES OR MORE”
After you’ve reached your goals, do you ever stop and say “I’ve made it”. Our goal was to do 100 miles in Shoreditch - but how can you stop when there's so much more to achieve?
“KEEP IT 100. KEEP IT DR. MARTENS”
