Kwasi Kessie on Working With A$AP Ferg, the Adidas Ultraboost, and Running the NYC Marathon

Wardrobe master Kwasi Kessie, whose clients include fellow Harlem natives A$AP Ferg and Diddy, has also had running on the brain for as long as he can remember.

Renowned stylist and captain of Adidas Runners Harlem, Kwasi Kessie, often finds himself considering performance as a two-sided concept—one part functionality, and another part swag. The wardrobe master, whose clients include fellow Harlem natives A$AP Ferg and Diddy, has also had running on the brain since he witnessed his mother training for the New York City Marathon years ago.

Now with a foot in the worlds of both fashion and fitness, the stylist and three-time New York City Marathon runner himself has the opportunity to leverage both of his passions for a greater purpose. Check out the video above as Kessie details his community work with celebrity clients, the importance of role models, and his dedication to the long haul.
