Along with that collaboration, Leo Leo have teamed up with an airbrush artist in the USA to create some airbrushed tees. An airbrush tee was an American summer staple in the 80’s and 90’s, so Leo Leo is bringing this design back and into New Zealand. This features two t-shirt designs which have all been hand airbrushed in limited quantities and will be exclusive to the online store.
Also included are the sold out Champion shorts in a new colourway, these were a favourite in last summer's drop. As well as this the brand has released their first 6 panel cap which has been handmade in New Zealand.
