Spiritsaver’s debut merch combats waste and pollution

We love Fridays, and we love new music, and we love fashion. What happens when all three of these things are combined, you ask? We celebrate! Today, psychedelic R&B duo Spiritsaver’s single “Magnolia” is launching in tandem with their debut merch collection, which features a T-shirt, a snapback hat and branded mints. But this isn’t any ordinary merch. It’s been designed in collaboration with This Is Your Brain On Plants using upcycled, unreleased Yeezy Gap pieces.

ICYMI, when Gap cut ties with Kanye West, they decided to incinerate his entire collection. Spiritsaver’s team pulled some strings to rescue the deadstock. So not only will you be supporting Toronto-based musicians, you’ll also be helping to combat waste.
