Amsterdam-based streetwear imprint Patta works in collaboration with Stüssy once again with the latest release in the form of the Respect Tee. The graphic shirt is designed with a printed visual and honors Humprey Rietfeld Schmidt, who is the late father of Patta's co-founder Guillaume 'Gee' Schmidt.
Patta notes in a statement, "With the Respect Tee we are not only paying homage to the past but also empowering present and future generations to carry forward the spirit of resilience and progress." The tribute is launching in-store and online on June 3rd to consciously celebrate its past, present, and future. The shirt has a monochromatic look and all the money generated from the tee will go towards Project Bigi Pondo, a charitable organization that leads "community uplift and sustainable development" in Suriname.
