A Father, A Student, An Entrepreneur… Meet NCCU's, Ashley Boa Amponsem

Written by our Founder + Creative Director, Tahir “Legacy” Murray

In April, we collaborated with Cashh Vintage, a vintage resale business founded by NCCU student Ashley Boa Amponsem, on a surprise pop-up event on campus. Ashley, better known as Ash, is known for hosting a variety of events and pop-up shops that connect students to fashion and streetwear culture.

Through this partnership, we gifted nearly 100 unreleased LHP NCCU polos to students on campus. The giveaway completely sold out in just 5 minutes, and it’s safe to say students were excited to get their hands on this exclusive Eagle apparel.
