DGK is introducing a new collaboration with the Bruce Lee Family Company and Bruce Lee LLC, which sees the famous martial artist printed across a series of skateboards and apparel. The collection strives to carry on and share Bruce Lee's legacy via his art and philosophy, which fostered personal progress, harmonious individualism, and an open heart. The collection comprises T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, accessories, and skateboards, all decorated with phrases, motifs, and imagery of Lee.
A highlight of the collection is the ‘Don’t Think’ T-shirt, which boasts phrasing that reads “Don’t Think, Feel!” in gothic text. The front of the shirt is covered with a photo of Lee in his yellow jumpsuit from The Game of Death.
The DGK x Bruce Lee Collection will be available in stores and online on November 18th.
