Justin Reed, an LA-based curator, has recently unveiled a Chrome Hearts punching bag with the brand's cross design embellished on the surface. Reed has shown significant interest in the Chrome Hearts brand, delivering a custom Rogue Weight Bench and a Stamped Wooden Moving Crate with inspiration from the imprint. The bag comes with built-in straps and hooks, silver embellishments, a zipper top, and Chrome Hearts components that resemble a sleeve. It can be secured to the ceiling using the leather straps.
Reed has also listed several Rolling Stones and Dog Tag Pendants and a pair of custom Apple AirPods Max headphones hand-painted by Matty Boy. Interested consumers can visit the Justin Reed website to explore the curator's portfolio.
