The Summer 2022 fashion collection from YG‘s 4HUNNID brand draws aesthetic inspiration from Compton culture. The first drop is described as including "raw and unapologetic “KUT & SEW” garments" that carry with them a sense of nostalgia. From the Havana Stripes set and the Twill Button Up Shirt to the Candy Cane Stripes Shirt, and FH Chinos, the silhouettes look comfortable and stylish. The motifs and elements throughout this range celebrate the roots of YG (also known as Keenon Dequan Ray Jackson) who emerged from Compton, California to become a very well-known and successful American rapper.
The Summer 2022 silhouettes from YG‘s 4HUNNID brand range in price from $60 USD to $180 USD, making for a relatively affordable streetwear capsule.
