DOVE SHRUNKEN HOODIE
2021-2022 - 471280 - $240ReleasedBackground: Featuring a Dove designed by Alan Pastrana, the Dove Shrunken Hoodie was first shown in the YGEBB Lookbook posted by Ye and The Gap. The looks are modeled by Bilal Cudjoe (Male) and Aisha Potter (Female).
After Ye gave his Personal Vintage UNLV Anselmo's Running Rebels Hoodie to Demna, Demna would reference it for this Hoodie as well as the Logo Shrunken Hoodie.
The Hoodie was originally designed and intended to be given to the Homeless to be a 3rd layer, and they would add or remove the Hoodie depending on the weather.
The retail version featured a somewhat normal hoodie cut compared to samples that were cropped and had long sleeves, as well as a Blue Square YZY Logo on the top of the hood. The Washed Black colorway used in the Lookbook was never released.
It was initially sold on yeezygap.com in the Black and Dark Blue colorways and Beige and Dark Grey on Third-Party sites. Ye had said in an interview with CNBC on 09/15/2022, that there were colorways he hadn't approved, as well as sites.
The Stock Image with the shiny GAP Logo had been used on Balenciaga's website.
The Dove Shrunken Hoodie went on to be worn by multiple celebrities, from Jack Harlow to Ni-Ki.
