Peep these new T-shirts from Japanese streetwear label Cav Empt, a brand founded by Toby Feltwell, Hishi and a design entity named Sk8thing, whose moniker you may dismiss for being completely idiotic, but is actually the man behind the OG iconic Bape and BBC/Ice Cream graphics. Now that Bape is riding the struggle bus, it makes sense that Mr. Thing would branch off and do his own, decidedly not hot garbage shit. Cav Empt is more avant garde than Bape and BBC ever were and, in general, disposes of traditional graphic design. Like, the way the text is stretched vertically on these T-shirts is probably making some graphic designer professor's eye twitch. Aren't you sick of perfectly minimal graphics by now anyway? Symmetry and sizing and simplicity are getting fucking exhausting.
