Hip-hop artist Blxst works in collaboration with Chicago streetwear label Jugrnaut on a new exclusive collection entitled 'My City to Chi City.' The new capsule is exclusively available on Hypebeast and it will feature 4 different sporty designs that are released through the artist's own Evgle LLC brand.
The graphic tees come in the tonal options of either black or red with a screen-printed visual at the front that showcases a flying eagle and text that reads "Chicago Everywhere." The back of the shirts is detailed with the artist's name and a print of a plane ticket, which is inspired by the commute to Chicago for Lollapalooza from Los Angeles. The capsule is now available for purchase.
