When Yung Lean, Yung Sherman, and Yung Gud dropped a new collection of Sadboys Gear a couple of weeks back, it sold out in just two hours. More than just merch, their embroidered hoodies, utility vests, and rose motif t-shirts were swiftly followed by the launch of a collaboration with Eytys. The Sadboys Spider, a leather low-top, boasts green soles and spikey cable-tie laces. The boys will be releasing a second batch of gear in new colorways (previous iterations were only available in black, red, and brown), pictured exclusively here on Yung Gud. The collection is due to drop tomorrow — Thursday, December 8 — at 4pm GMT on sadboysgear.com
“We want to take a moment and salute all Yung Lean/Sadboys fans worldwide for the support,” Yung Lean told i-D. “2016 [has] been a crazy year and this will be our last drop for a while, c u in 2017 we’re just getting started.” To celebrate, the trio has made us a mixtape of what they’re listening to these days. Opening with a bang and French Montana’s “Stick Up Boyz,” the selection jumps between laid back trap and the industrial lo-fi of Dirty Beaches, Lexxi, and Aphex Twin’s selected ambient works before ending on Vår’s cinematic “No One Dances Quite Like My Brothers.” So this is what it sounds like to be a Sadboy…
