Big Sean has been spotted wearing a new clothing item designed by JAY-Z the night before it went on sale.
On Tuesday (January 23), the Detroit MC attended an NBA game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers at the Crypto.com Arena — but it wasn’t just the inter-city rivalry that caught fans’ attention.
In addition to his dress shirt, tie, trousers and J Dilla cap, Sean Don had on a bomber jacket designed by JAY-Z that Roc Nation and Moncler released together the following morning via the Italian luxury fashion house’s website and select outlets.
The jacket is part of a new collaboration between the two brands that also includes a puffer coat, streamlined vest, tee/sweatshirt hybrid and a bucket hat.
“We climb mountains, over hard paths from hard places,” Roc Nation signee SAINt JHN says in the trailer for the collaboration. “Climb above the noise to find your voice, till there’s only sky above you. Genius is everywhere.”
