Attention art and fashion enthusiasts! This unique t-shirt is the result of a collaboration between JP Mika, a leading figure in contemporary African art, and Xuly-Bët, a pioneering label of committed style.

Each numbered piece is part of an exclusive capsule collection of 65 oversized t-shirts, 15 of which are offered here.
