Boat-Themed Rapper Apparel

Lil Yachty Released a Line of Merchandise to Honor His 'Lil Boat' Tour

— August 12, 2016 — Fashion
Lil Yachty, an Atlanta rapper whose latest album 'Lil Boat' has recently been spread to fans through a tour, has also launched his own commemorative apparel line.

Included are a variety of graphic t-shirts, long-sleeves and hats, all of which denote the Lil Boat album in a different way. Hats, which are offered in black, orange, blue, yellow and green, are marked with the simplistic embroidery of a sail boat. Meanwhile, a number of shirts state "Sailing Team" whereas others honor Lil Yachty and his album more obviously.

This is accomplished with his name appearing over an image and "The Boat Show Tour 2016" written beneath. A vintage-inspired t-shirt also shows Lil Yachty's name but accompanies with a stars on the tips of each letter and a picture of him that's humorously surrounded with bolts of lightening.
