Despite needing nine stitches after a serious skateboarding accident in August, Lil Wayne is still 100 percent submerged in the skater lifestyle. The 29-year-old rapper is set to release Trukfit, a new skater inspired clothing line, at the end of January.
“Lil Wayne has long been recognized as a music and pop culture icon,” says Trukfit public relations representative Sarah Cunningham. “He has developed a unique style — both sonically and visually — and extending his brand and vision into apparel was a natural progression. As Lil Wayne is passionate about skateboarding, it only made sense for him to infuse that passion into Trukfit.”
Described as “well-made, stylish and edgy,” Weezy F. Baby will debut his skate apparel on January 23 and 24 in New York City at the Agenda Trade Show.
