Timeless — a brand that operates within the lifestyle cannabis sector — has continued its year-long artist series partnership with the WET PAINT graffiti collective by launching a limited-edition collection featuring Bronx-based graffiti legend CES. This collaboration transforms Timeless’s hardware platform, which includes vape devices and accessories, into canvases for CES’s signature wildstyle lettering and layered compositions.
The new Timeless x CES capsule encompasses a Flip Case, the T Series AIO device, and a Tumble Five-Pack. This collaborative cannabis capsule offers exclusivity and a tangible connection to CES’s decades-long influence — from the early subway era of New York graffiti to his current status as a foundational figure who helped transition the art form from trains to walls.
Timeless notes that its collaboration with WET PAINT graffiti collective will be available in Arizona, California, Oklahoma, Missouri, New Jersey, Illinois, and New York.
