The shoes are accompanied by three apparel designs as well, including the Rip and Rework tee that is detailed with graphics that blend together a trippy checkerboard print and visuals of skateparks. The same pattern can be seen on the signature sneaker and it is rounded out by a typography logo 5-panel cap.
