Jay Z's Holiday Collection Drops at Barneys


Despite pressure from the community to end his partnership with Barneys over allegations of racial profiling, Jay Z's holiday collection at Barneys dropped yesterday featuring $900 baseball caps and $2,600 leather boxing shorts...

From The NY Post
Jay Z’s controversial collection for Barneys was unveiled Wednesday, and it’s chock-full of gifts for that overspending, ostentatious rap mogul in the family.
The $1,000 cedar-lined humidor, $2,590 leather boxing shorts and $875 python-brimmed Brooklyn caps are for sale in a separate back room of the Madison Avenue department store that is guarded by a bouncer and has more employees than shoppers.
The store can use the extra eyes. The cheapest item in the 30-piece collection is a $70 T-shirt. At the high end — a $33,900 gold Hublot watch.
Other items from the collection include a $4,500 cashmere throw, a $12,500 knuckle ring and a $58,000 Rick Owens crocodile jacket.
