I’m about to have a field day. Nation-wide Target took a page out of the How to Streetwear guide to produce their own line of limited edition beach towels with Jeff Koons and Kehinde Wiley. Jeff Koons previously designed a series of decks for Supreme, effectively making these beach towels a huge necessity regardless of whether you live near the beach or not. Better yet, buy these and proudly pin them up on your walls, beach towels are the new skate decks.
