Wasted Youth works in collaboration with Budweiser on a special summer capsule alongside one another. It was originally showcased earlier this month when the duo released visuals of the joint beer cans with the help of graphic artist VERDY.
The branding is updated from the familiar design seen since 1999 and this time around, the two continue to build upon the collaboration with a series of apparel options. The leading items include the Soccer Game shirts in a red and black palette that is detailed with Wasted Youth monogram prints, sponsorship logos from Budweiser, and VKDW team badges. This is followed by bucket haps, mesh caps, 4-panel caps, a shoulder bag, a tote bag, and a beer can figure.
