The Men's Lee® x Basquiat™ Printed Sweater is a statement piece Inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat's iconic 1982 painting, "Phooey." This sweater brings the artist's signature blend of collage and graffiti to life and is a commentary on overconsumption both during the time of the painting's creation and in today's world.
Crafted from soft cotton knit, this pullover showcases Basquiat's artwork in vivid detail, allowing wearers to express themselves in more ways than one. The black neckline and cuffs provide a striking contrast, framing the vibrant colors of the artwork and adding a touch of sophistication to the piece.
With its oversized fit, the Lee® x Basquiat™ Printed Sweater combines incredible artwork and meticulous stitching, creating a truly unique garment that transcends fashion boundaries. The piece is now available on the Lee website alongside the collaboration collection's other eye-catching pieces.
