Revision as of 10:23, 23 September 2018

In the late 1990's Mo'Wax Japan and BAPE teamed with Futura2000 to create several t-shirts. Worth noting is that Futura also had his FML label at around the same time which put out very similar designs. Some of these t-shirts were sold shrink-wrapped in to a gun shape.
