Japanese fashion label 'monkey time' and NASA teamed up to drop a collection of oversized shirts. The offerings come in monochromatic options of either black or white and all boast imagery representing NASA. The two worked together to embellish small prints on the front for minimal detail and larger visuals on the back -- referencing one of NASA's most iconic and successful space explorations.
Both the black and white shirts feature details that read "National Aeronautics and Space Administration." The rear of the black large fitted tee sees the APOLLO XI imprint and a photo capture of the space exploration. The white shirt boasts branding details of the company's logo and technical details of the Space Transport System. The monkey time and NASA collaborative t-shirts are now available only at monkey time's Japan outlets, and will be hitting UNITED ARROWS' online store mid-May.
