outsmART Originals has tapped RSIN for the latest releases in their ongoing series of artist apparel.  Reprising the design from the NYCC 2012 tee, The Crown is now available on a limited-edition black tee (in men and women’s style) and in our opinion looks even better than the OG white tee.

As a fun bonus, RSIN has created a ‘custom 4” Dunny’ which will be given to a lucky customer via a random drawing.  Customers will receive one entry for each RSIN crown item purchased.
