His lifestyle and identity have been intertwined with the brand's evolution, making this collaboration feel like a natural progression. Joey Gabbay, CEO at Bluestar Alliance, the parent company of Hurley, expressed the significance of this partnership, stating, "This collaboration is special for us as it showcases the synergy between the spirit and excitement of Hurley in its early days with who we are now as an internationally established brand."
