Even though I shouldn’t have been, I was surprised to see my favorite streetwear brand making its presence known at yesterday’s announcement by Tyreke Evans, who announced he’ll be attending Memphis next season. Clearly, UNDRCRWN runs Philly.
Sure, pretty much everyone knew Evans, Rivals’ No. 6 player in the nation, would pick Memphis, but his announcement gets bonus points for the shirts his family wore during the announcement.
Dustin Canalin, design and creative director for UNDRCRWN, has all the details on his blog. It’s really amazing; Canalin says they designed, presented, printed and delivered the 50 shirts to the family in a week.
After the jump, find out which hip-hop artist came to Evans’ announcement.
Freeway (right) poses for a picture with Evans. (Ed. note: In case there was any confusion, he would be the one with the ridiculous time piece.)
Special thanks to Dustin Canalin for the photos.
