40s & Shorties Follows Former Bad Boy Rapper Shyne to Belize for Summer 2018
Running through the streets as the artist once did.
40s & Shorties recently unveiled its Summer 2018 collection, enlisting former Bad Boy rapper Shyne to not only star in the lookbook display but follow him around his home country of Belize. The lifestyle label got a snapshot of Shyne’s childhood upbringing, as the once-troubled artist guided the crew around the island, revisiting the street he previously lived on, while also touring the resource center he helped initiate.
Graphic T-shirts, branded crewneck tops and printed short-sleeved button-down shirts comprise the bulk of the collection, with a small sampling of cross-body pouches also thrown in for good measure. Exploring the country and its cultural beliefs first hand, the streetwear imprint thought it wise to feature local residents in its seasonal wares as a way to best articulate all that is Belize — intimate charms and all. The collection will make its debut on May 24 through the brand’s online store.
