Building upon its initial capsule of summer tees, Awake NY brings forth a full-fledged Summer 2024 collection. 

 

This new offering goes beyond their one-year anniversary celebration graphics and showcases Awake’s design prowess in a range of apparel perfect for the warm weather.

 

The collection’s eye-catcher is undoubtedly the selection of button-down shirts. Available in all-over prints, these statement pieces feature bold designs like a roulette wheel and vibrant ombré hues.

 

Sportswear enthusiasts will appreciate the elevated mesh jersey. This black silhouette features an eye-catching lifted purple lining along the neckline, complemented by a retro-style embroidered “Awake NY” logo and the number 23 on the back.

For a more laid-back summer feel, Awake NY offers knit polos in refreshing shades of pink and cream, accented with unique textured braids running down the center.

 

Of course, Awake NY doesn’t shy away from its graphic heritage. The collection includes three vibrant zip-up hoodies adorned with a striking image of the New York City skyline.

 

The collection drops in-store at the NYC flagship and online on Saturday, June 22nd, at 12:00 PM EST.
