Although the group hasn't been active for a while, the merch is still rolling out — these Beastie Boys t-shirts and hoodies are a testimony to that. The music trio has established themselves as a clear cultural artifact — one that definitely impacts and defines the hip hop genre. To pay homeage to the late 90s/early 2000s and the social capital of his band, Mike D partners up with FACT. to "produce a truly LA collection."
The Beastie Boys t-shirts, long-sleeves and hoodies cover the band's early years of operation — from their debut as "punk trio to the ground-breaking album 'III Communication.'"Each garment is handmade and printed in Los Angeles. The designs carry that ultra-nostalgic, old-school street-style aesthetic that becomes easily transferred to contemporary fashion culture due to its iconic status.
