BAIT introduces a new collection of apparel designs that honor the iconic Peanuts characters by Charles M. Schulz. The brand also celebrates basketball by blending the two influences together through graphics that adorn silhouettes such as graphic hoodies, shorts, tees, crewneck sweaters, and gym bags.
One of the notable graphics that detail the pieces read "ball is life" as well as the reversed version "life is ball" along with a visual of the iconic Snoopy shooting a basketball into a dog dish that sits on his dog house. The other side features Lunus van Pelt shooting a basketball, throwing it into a shopping cart. Another notable look is the graphic inspired by the Los Angeles' Lakers logo.
