As spotted on Hype Beast the New York City based label is taking one of the culture’s beloved photographs and turning it into a streetwear piece. This top features the classic photo of the Brooklyn, New York native holding a pigeon in each hand. Originally shot in 1985 by Manny Milan for Sports Illustrated Magazine the visual appears to capture Mike Tyson attempting to make the two birds kiss. Given the former the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world speaks with a very noticeable lisp, the photograph has always been referred to as a “kith”.
Years later the clothing company is capitalizing on it via a t-shirt called “Now Kith.” The KITH for Mike Tyson Vintage Tee is made from 230GSM vintage-washed cotton and features a ribbed neckline with the artwork of Iron Mike on the front. It is available in two colors, black and white. To promote the drop Mike Tyson stars in the promotional campaign for the release and is seen wearing the t-shirt proudly.
This month Mike Tyson is set to box Jake Paul on Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas. The fight will be exclusively streamed on Netflix. You can shop the KITH for Mike Tyson Vintage Tee starting today via the KITH Monday Program here.

DJ Khaled clearly lives a life. In a recent interview he reveals what he needs with him at all times during a trip.
As he prepares for the release of his fourteenth album DJ Khaled is even more busy than usual. During some of his most recent maneuvers he spoke to GQ Magazine and gave the world an inside look on his travel essentials. And as expected his pieces and more so his explanations did not disappoint. When asked what he packs first he made clear that hygiene is always top of mind regardless where he is going. “I mean, you got to have the gold toothbrush. Got to have that. Personally, I love Dove deodorant” he said. “Also, I got to throw some cigars in there because I might hit the golf course. Need some lighters in there because I got to light the cigars, so we’ll need the Djeep lighters, for sure. I love to flick lighters when I make music, when I hear something hot.”
The music mogul also is very specific when it comes to his white t-shirts. “Now the white T’s—very important. There’s two different types of white T’s. One is the new fresh one, just in case you need to throw something on, you can never go wrong” he added. “But then you have the white T’s that you wash every single day. I would hope you wash your clothes every day. My white T’s, I like to wear the washed ones when I go to bed. I love those. It’s just a different feeling, and I sleep so much better.”
But surprisingly his tour rider is very straightforward. “You know we got the Diptyque candles. The Beats Pill. Djeep lighter. Gum. Fresh towels. Hand sanitizer. I ain’t gonna lie to you, we got a little chocolate. Just in case I get in that zone, I need something chocolate, some Hershey’s. But then we also got granola, the healthy pack,” he said.
