While the late Rikhado Makhado famed Riky Rick remains one of the most influential figures these past years, the rapper has also been a long-time passionate sneaker collector and has put together what we’d call an admirable collection.
Riky Rick, aged just 34, sadly passed away on Wednesday, 23 February 2022.
However, not only his sneaker collection but his bold fashion taste as a whole has always been a talking point in the streetwear community. From taking on the Paris Fashion Week, starring on John Elliott SS’18 lookbook to hitting local fashion runways and putting out his own Cotton Fest Merchandise — Riky definitely remains a style icon.
