Fans of street art will definitely recognize the [Obey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reebok-obey) Bar Logo T-Shirt. For those who don't, the logo is the brainchild of well-known [graffiti artist Shepard Fairey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/takashi-murakami-tee). He's the one responsible for Barack Obama's "Hope" poster and more recently, made an appearance in Banksy's documentary Exit Through The Gift Shop.

The Obey Bar Logo T-Shirt is simple and very straightforward. The graphic is basically the infamous red and white logo of Shepard Fairey's brand. André the Giant isn't featured above, although that would've added a nice touch. But the [minimalist tee's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/made-to-order) visual is recognizable enough that it really doesn't require additional flashy elements to get some attention.

For graffiti fans, the Obey Bar Logo T-Shirt would make a great collector's item.
