The Clipse x Carhartt collaboration is the perfect merchandise for one of hip-hop’s most iconic reunions. The fusion of Clipse’s logo with Carhartt’s iconic “C” is a match made in heaven.
The Reunion of Clipse
Clipse, the legendary hip-hop duo comprising brothers Pusha T and No Malice (formerly Malice), have reunited before. Notably, they walked the runway for Pharrell’s debut Louis Vuitton show, highlighting their close relationship with Pharrell, as all three hail from Virginia.
New Music Debut at Louis Vuitton Show
This deep connection was further showcased when Pusha T and No Malice premiered a new song, their first in years, at the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2025 runway show. Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton showcases are designed to be headline-grabbing events, with star power taking center stage over the new clothing line.
Clipse’s Workwear Collaboration with Carhartt
The seamless fit of Clipse’s new workwear collaboration with Carhartt aligns perfectly with Pharrell’s recent focus on workwear. It’s fitting that Clipse, who helped make baggy Carhartt jeans and Timberland’s 6″ boots fashion staples in the 2000s, would be the ones to elevate these functional items into a new era of luxury.
Clipse’s First Public Performance Since 2009
The official reunion of Clipse began on June 21 in Paris, with Pharrell by their side. This performance marked their first public showcase in a long time, signaling the start of a new era for Clipse. It was their first cohesive public push since the landmark 2009 album “Til the Casket Drops” and the subsequent tour.
The Significance of the Carhartt Collaboration
The Carhartt collaboration is more than just merch; it’s a celebration of Clipse’s historic moment. It nods to hip-hop heritage while reaffirming Carhartt’s status as a newfound luxury brand. This collaboration emphasizes the sophisticated taste inherent to Carhartt WIP, the fashion-forward imprint of the Detroit manufacturer.
Availability of Clipse x Carhartt Merchandise
While the custom Clipse x Carhartt jackets and jeans aren’t available for sale (yet), co-branded layering pieces are available online for a limited time, mostly priced under $100. This collaboration marks an auspicious (re)start for one of hip-hop’s best duos, whose shared future looks brighter than ever.
