Dapper Dan expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, “When Gap came to me, this partnership signified a breakout for the culture. This DAP GAP campaign is my love letter to Harlem, and my way of continuing to propel our culture and community forward. Gap gave us the global presence that allowed us to have the breakout, and I can’t wait for the next generation to be a part of this movement.”

The collection will debut at Harlem’s GAP 125th Street store on December 4, with a broader release on the brand’s website on December 5. Available in sizes ranging from toddler 2T to adult XXXL, the prices range from $25 USD to $128 USD.
