We recently posted a story about the Silly Thing: Event Horizon – Retro Journey of the Spraycan Wizard exhibit in Hong Kong. Now we are showing you the tees that are part of that event which were designed by Futura. It’s a special Silly Thing x Futura x Supreme x Undercover collaboration. It bears the Silly Thing logo in spray form at the front, while the title of the exhibit is printed on the back. Definitely a must have item if you get a chance to see this great exhibit.
