Two of the worlds most well-known [stoner icons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kristofferson-san-pablo), Cheech and Chong, are represented as faceless images on the ‘Up in Smoke’ tee shirt by No Star.

The reefer-loving hippie dynamic duo may be missing their facial features but they are easily identifiable. Cheech Marin is represented with the classic red cap, messy hair and funky mustache; his sidekick, Tommy Chong, is identified by the red headband, wild ‘do and beard.

‘Up in Smoke’ tee shirts would make a great gift for those who used to, or still do, partake in [smoking marijuana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bic-ez-reach-lighter-supper-club), or even non-marijuana users who are Cheech and Chong fans.
