The Elder Statesman works in collaboration with the NBA to follow its previous range of jacquard knit pieces. This time, the two introduce a collection of premium cashmere knit sweaters and are exclusively available at Ron Herman. The collaborative range is comprised of five sweaters in total -- all of which boast a simplistic black colorway. The California-based label infuses its signature cashmere to deliver ultimate comfort for sports fans. Each knit piece is adorned with a different reimagined logo alongside additional NBA branding details.
All five black sweaters are decorated with a contrasting white stitching logo of the NBA, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, and the Chicago Bulls. The range will be available at Ron Herman's Japanese store locations beginning June 8th.
