Yuta Hosokawa’s SAINT Mxxxxxx and Cali Dewitt’s Cactus Plant Flea Market (CPFM) have teamed up with Cynthia Lu’s Cactus Plant Flea Market for an exciting collaboration inspired by the iconic ’80s hip-hop group Public Enemy. This collection includes a four-piece apparel capsule and a three-piece stuffed toy set, mixing nostalgic references with avant-garde streetwear style.
The Apparel Capsule
The clothing collection offers a fresh take on streetwear staples, including graphic tees and hockey jerseys. CPFM’s signature smiley face icon is featured boldly across the pieces. But it’s given a haunting makeover this time. The smiley face, known for its playful design, takes on a mysterious twist, appearing in several spine-chilling renditions that overlap with SAINT Michael’s gothic-inspired graphics. One standout design even features a headshot-like depiction of the smiley face, giving the collection a dark, edgy vibe.
The collaboration pays homage to Public Enemy, with co-branded logos from SAINT x CPFM on each piece. The t-shirts are in various graphic styles, making them the perfect pick for streetwear fans looking to add a unique touch to their wardrobe. The hockey jerseys arrive in two standout colorways—green and red and classic black and white—allowing fans to rock the bold look of the collaboration with style. Completing the apparel set is a matching baseball cap designed to tie the entire look together.
CPFM x SAINT Mxxxxxx Plush Toys
In addition to the apparel, the collaboration includes three exclusive plush toys, each featuring CPFM’s double-eyed smiley face design. These toys add a playful element to the collection, contrasting the eerie vibe of the apparel.
- Red Smiley with Devil Horns: This red plush has devil horns, giving it a rebellious twist. It is perfect for those who love bold designs.
- Yellow Smiley Plush: This version sticks to the classic yellow colorway of CPFM’s signature smiley face, making it instantly recognizable.
- Blue Smiley with a Cap: Rounding out the trio is a blue plush toy with a baseball cap, blending the playful smiley with streetwear aesthetics.
These toys are perfect for collectors or anyone who appreciates the quirky, eye-catching designs CPFM is known for.
