WIND AND SEA is set to launch a special triple collaboration with legendary hip-hop crew De La Soul and the beloved ’90s rhythm action game PaRappa the Rapper. The collection is a tribute to rhythm, peace and creativity. This unique partnership was inspired by De La Soul’s music video “Say ‘I Gotta Believe!,” where PaRappa makes a special appearance.

A central design element across the collection is the daisy, symbolizing De La Soul’s motto, “D.A.I.S.Y.” (Da Inner Sound, Y’all), and PaRappa’s love interest, Sunny Funny, a flower character. The collection also features De La Soul’s classic track “Eye Know,” emphasizing the theme of love. Highlights include denim jackets and sweat sets adorned with playful characters, long-sleeve and short-sleeve tees featuring artist photos of De La Soul, and an all-over daisy pattern S/S shirt. Accessories like gold necklaces, blankets and tote bags are also part of the lineup.

Check out the release above. The collection will be available via a lottery-based sale through the official WIND AND SEA online store from July 12 to July 20.
