In a surprise announcement on his Instagram Story and later in a post, Salehe Bembury is dropping a collaborative t-shirt with WTAPS.
Initially to tease the collaboration, Bembury shared on his Instagram Story a blurred out image of the design while seemingly in a meeting with the WTAPS team. Hours later, Bembury posted the t-shirt to his feed stating that it will drop as a limited collaboration for fans to purchase. The Tokyo-based brand and designer have come together for a black t-shirt co-branded with the WTAPS logo as well as Bembury's name. On the front of the t-shirt reads "WTAPS Blossom Territory," while the back reads "Salehe Bembury 2024 Tour." The inspiration behind the t-shirt was explained in his post. Bembury hopes to pay homage to his time in Tokyo with the shirt, "Inspired by his recent trips to Japan, Salehe Bembury and WTAPS have come together to celebrate the Cherry Blossom Festival. In light of this event, the two partners have created a collaborative shirt to mark this occasion. WTAPS being located and having a strong heritage in Japan, juxtaposed with Salehe's love for the outdoors, nature and Japanese fashion was the foundation of inspiration for this collaborative venture."
The collaborative WTAPS x Salehe Bembury Blossom Tee is set to release on April 5 at 9 a.m. EST online, limited to 100 pieces.
