M.C. Escher, a graphic artist from the Netherlands whose work is largely inspired by elements of mathematics, joined with New York streetwear giant Supreme to create a collection that features a myriad of his designs.
The collection will be available in-store at Supreme's Paris, London, New York, and Los Angeles locations starting on May 4th, as well as in Japan on May 6th. Those who don't have access to these locations will also be able to find the collection online, where it's sure to sell out fast.
Included are various graphic shirts, hoodies, jerseys, coats, and baseball caps -- which feature M.C. Escher's designs boldly, with many different pieces taking up sections of each piece.
