The recent collaboration between Francisco-based design studio Pardon My Hindi and the rap trio Das Racist from New York City has resulted in a series of t-shirts that boast a limited edition print for the summer season. The Pardon my Hindi and Das Racist collaboration produced 200 T-shirts, which are signed by them, and feature a sultan and what appears to be a Native American chief exchanging a diplomatic handshake.
The shirt is printed in the colors of the American flag and features "Das Racist" underneath the two figures, outlined in a border of small blue, white and red squares that is very tribal-esque. The Pardon My Hindi and Das Racist t-shirt will be available for purchase at both the Pardon My Hindi online website and during the Das Racist summer tour.
