DC SHOES JOINS FORCES WITH WU-TANG ON LIMITED-EDITION PRODUCT COLLECTION
CELEBRATING 20 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF GROUNDBREAKING ALBUM
Manila, Philippines – DC Shoes launches the extremely limited-edition product collection celebrating the 20 year anniversary of the groundbreaking album “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers),” along with the debut of an exclusive short film entitled "STREETS & BOARDS & BEES & SWORDS,” at DC Shangri-La Plaza, DC TriNoma and SneakPeek Shnangri-La Plaza.
In 1993, a group of artists from New York City’s Staten Island and Brooklyn boroughs came together to challenge the current state of hip-hop. Their raw, energetic, chaotic yet coordinated approach yielded one of the most unique, innovative and influential records of all time. Those artists – RZA, GZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa and Ol’ Dirty Bastard – were together known as the Wu-Tang Clan and the record – “Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers),” released November 9, 1993, would change the face of hip-hop forever.
At the same time in Southern California, a group of skateboarders fed up with the lack of performance and innovation in skate shoes set out to challenge the current state of the footwear market. With the confident, collaborative sound of the Wu-Tang Clan as their soundtrack, those skateboarders went on to create a similarly innovative product – the DC Shoes brand. DC is proud to present a limited-edition “Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)” 20 Year Anniversary Collection to commemorate this revolutionary album and its influence on the brand and skate culture.
Featuring the highest quality materials and fabrications, artwork from the original album cover and exclusive Wu-Tang anniversary branding, the collection consists of a heavy wool blend pea coat with satin lining and custom gold metal buttons, lux full grain leather high-top boots with gold eyelets and a hat constructed with Performance CycleDry fabric and New Era brim. A limited quantity of each will be available for purchase worldwide on November 14th at 9am EST at www.dcshoes.com/wutang.
“The Wu-Tang Clan and their first album had an enormous influence on our culture and our brand,” said Jeff Taylor, Senior Vice President of Global Brand and Marketing for DC Shoes. “We’re thrilled to collaborate with Wu-Tang on this exclusive footwear and apparel collection and celebrate an album that
continues to inspire.”
