ROME PAYS OFF - Jean-Michel Basquiat "Skull" Hoodie

From the visionary design house ROME PAYS OFF comes a heavyweight statement piece—this medium-weight cotton fleece hoodie channels Jean-Michel Basquiat's raw creative energy. The front chest features a striking yellow-gold embroidered crown, while the back showcases Basquiat's iconic 1983 Skull design in bold relief. It's not just decoration; it's a nod to one of art history's most influential voices. Inside the kangaroo pocket sits a sewn-in woven label with handwritten text sourced directly from Basquiat's personal notebook pages—a detail that separates this from standard streetwear. Basquiat's skulls weren't random imagery. They represented his identity as a Black artist in America, echoing African mask traditions and channeling his Haitian heritage through the spiritual symbolism of Voodoo. Wear this and you're wearing cultural weight. 100% cotton fleece. Relaxed fit. Kangaroo pockets. Made in Portugal. Care: Machine wash cold with like colors. Skip the bleach and iron.
