The Halal Guys Joins Lafayette on a New Set of Apparel Designs
The Halal Guys was popularized in New York, selling delicious American halal food and most recently, it branches into the world of streetwear with the help of Lafayette.
Both names are born out of New York and speaking about the collection, Ahmed Abouelenein states, “In every brand decision we make, we consider how to pay homage to our humble beginnings as a NYC street food cart [...] This apparel line was inspired by New York City fashion, pairing today’s streetwear trends with The Halal Guys’ iconography and we think fans will be excited about the collaboration.” The capsule features branding and color palettes that reference the contributing efforts, complete with graphics that are familiar and true to both.
