Philadelphia Eagles superstar wide receiver Devonta Smith ran a route straight to Lapstone & Hammer next week to discuss his innovative partnership with sneaker/tech company Endstate. On Tuesday, Jan 3, we hosted an exclusive retail experience and Q&A featuring Devonta Smith and the EndState team in support of the Devonta Smith x Endstate Honey Drip sneaker/NFT release.
