Bleacher Report is helping bridge the worlds of basketball and hip-hop once again. For their latest campaign, BR enlisted a slew of noted artists to design basketball jerseys in partnership with Mitchell & Ness that represent for their hometowns. The NBA Remix Collection, which released Tuesday (Feb. 25), is now available on Bleacher Report's website.
Artists putting their designer skills to the test for the capsule include Future (Atlanta Hawks), ScHoolboy Q (Los Angeles Lakers), Big Sean (Detroit), E-40 (Golden State Warriors), Wale (Washington Wizards), No Limit (New Orleans Pelicans), The Diplomats (New York Knicks), and DJ Khaled (Miami Heat).
“Bleacher Report lives at the intersection of sports and culture. The NBA Remix Collection is probably the best physical representation of this mission," BR's chief marketing officer Ed Romaine said. "It fuses hip hop music and basketball at the local level with innovative designs that will drive conversation amongst a community of fans who are the new vanguard of style."
In addition to the limited-edition jerseys, an array of t-shirts, hoodies, long sleeves, hats, shorts, and other apparel are available for purchase. Prices on the unique garments range from $40 to $175.
