Scorpio, yellow, L 23"p2p, 26"s2h, 29"c2c
Scorpio (aka Mr. Ness), was a member of the amazing Furious 5 who with Grandmaster Flash made some of my favourite early old school hip hop records. Scorpio is also a tune from The Message LP released in 1982. Anyway found this brill image of a Scorpio sweatshirt taken by the amazing street photographer Jamel Shabazz who documented the NYC hip hop scene from the late 70s onwards. I love the DIY style of the fashion back then and heated words font. Popping into a shop to get your own message printed up there and then was great fun.
Handprinted on a preloved vintage yellow sweatshirt, with blue eco ink.
Measures: 23” pit to pit, 26” shoulder to hem and 29” collar to cuff.
