Lupe’s Japanese Fried Chicken

Monday, July 16, 2007 | Author: The Evil Collector



Lupe Fiasco
linked up with Swagger last winter to create a collection of bombers and winter accessories called “FUYU” which translates to “winter” in Japanese. These pieces were a small start to Lupe’s line with Swagger, Trilly and Trully which officially debuts this month with the “Haru” tee, meaning “spring” in Japanese. The cartoon tee, also a Trilly and Trully special, is a throwback to 1970’s cartoon art — think Fat Albert. Designers Big-O and Iggy, and Lupe are drawn wearing crowns and chasing a chicken.

“The Best Chicken Wings in Town Chicago” is an inside joke conceived by Lupe, who finds it ironic that chicken wings are a staple of soul food but also a favorite Japanese appetizer. The shirts will only be available at St. Alfred in Chicago. Check out the websites for more information.
