Upper Playground Grotesk T-shirt Collection

Upper Playground drop a brand new capsule collection featuring designs from Grotesk . This particular collection is special to Grotesk as it has been made as a homage to one of his favorite illustrators, Wilfred Limonious from Jamaica. As seen in his artistic style, Grotesk became heavily influenced by Reggae and Dancehall when he was in his late teens in Geneva, Switzerland.
