Pusha T follows Kanye's lead and makes a $296 t-shirt

We're still waiting for his "Givenchy fitting like gym clothes" collab.
Would you spend nearly $300 on a Pusha T’s Pusha tees? If so, you’re in luck—and it may be an investment. The “Blocka” rapper announced today that he’s collaborating with Italian designer Marcelo Burlon to release a limited-run collection of graphic tees. Displaying a tripadelic design featuring two intertwined king cobras—inspired by Terrence Thornton’s nickname, King Push—there will be only 400 editions of the black shirt printed. (100 additional white shirts are also planned.) We’re still waiting for his “Givenchy fitting like gym clothes” collabo, as promised on “Numbers on the Board.”
Some might see $300 as being quite expensive, but if the ex-Clipse member—whose long-delayed My Name is My Name has continually been delayed, though it’s slated for release in August—follows the footsteps of Kanye’s APC collection, these shirts could be worth quite a bit more. Indeed, several of Kanye’s items, like his sleeveless hoodie and denim jeans, are now being placed on eBay for a cool $600.
Grab one of the tees—and check out more images—at Burlon’s store.
