Just few days before the Diesel family celebrated their xXx, Jeff Carvalho and Michael Williams had the opportunity to sit down with 55DSL’s Creative Director and owner Andrea Rosso in the brand new New York City’s showroom.

They spoke for Highsnobiety about 55DSL and the market, the brand’s heritage and the dreams for the future, the trips to Japan and the USA, up to his happy childhood in the fashion industry and his streetwear-inspirational teenage in Bassano.

Read the more recent Andrea’s word on the hypest blog in the globe, the forefront of lifestyle and street culture, and don’t miss the chance to have a look at the upcoming 55DSL’s Spring-Summer 2009 15th Anniversary Collection!
