On Tuesday, the Atlanta Hawks announced a special in-store collaboration at the Hawks Shop with SKRIT, the new streetwear line by Atlanta’s own Waka Flocka Flame.

“I’m excited about bringing SKRIT to my hometown of Atlanta with one of the most iconic teams in the NBA, said Waka Flocka. “SKRIT has no creative ceiling and I consider this one of the most potentially worth while investments I’ve made in a long time.”

The neutral-color palette SKRIT streetwear will be available for purchase for fans exclusively at the main Hawks Shop, near Gate 1 at State Farm Arena, and is intended for both the young and seasoned fan. The Hawks’ logo appears on each piece in the collection, including, t-shirts, fleece crewnecks and joggers.
