Grindstone Universal Summer '19 Shirt Collection

Grindstone Universal has been a fixture in the streetwear and casual wear fashion scene for years, and the DC-based operation has expanded the brand to global heights. A new shirt collection just dropped, featuring designs inspired by Cuba and its film culture, along with one piece with the likeness of Jean-Michel Basquiat as well.

The fresh new collection, titled “The Cuban Reflections,” is inspired by images taken by Grindstone’s lead designer after a recent trip to the island nation. The images have been artfully altered and spliced with Cuban movie posters, all with standout flair as the brand has long been known for.

Beyond “The Cuban Reflections” pieces, another shirt, “Fight For It,” is emblazoned with the late Basquiat on the front. The artwork for this piece was rendered by 19-year old Jada Smith, a DC-based hyper-realism portrait visual artist.

Lil Wayne is the face of BAPE’s new collaboration with UGG and if you’re tuned in to Tunechi’s style, you know nothing makes more sense. Featuring sheepskin everything, the pieces are a perfect fit for the “Uproar” rapper, who just happens to love all things fuzzy.

In the photo above, Wayne looks happier than ever to model a pair of cozy gloves. In another press photo, he sports a tan camo jacket, lightly distressed jeans, and matching boots from the collection. “Been rocking UGG and BAPE since the beginning. This collab is next level,” Weezy said in a press release, according to Page Six.

The collection will launch in April of this year and will be available for purchase as long as supplies last at select BAPE and UGG retailers worldwide, the site reports. See what the collab is hittin’ for here.
