About Herschel Basquiat Backpack (Classic XL) – Untitled-Skull (1981)

This Classic XL Herschel Basquiat Backpack is part of an exclusive collaboration between Herschel Supply Co. and the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat. This collaborative backpack displays Basquiat's signature style throughout the sturdy canvas exterior for a colorful style. The roomy main compartment features a 15" laptop sleeve and a collaborative woven patch within. The exterior comes equipped with an additional zip compartment with built-in key clip and two water bottle sleeves for extra storage. This hershel Basquiat backpack design is finished with padded and adjustable shoulder straps and topped off with Basquiat's crown logo embroidered above Herschel's signature woven brand tag, creating a one-of-a-kind design that celebrates the legendary artist's iconic style. 1980s art icon and native New Yorker Jean-Michel Basquiat was hailed for works that draw on a multivalent range of sources, from Greek, Roman, and African art to jazz, pop culture and his artistic contemporaries. Before he rose to art stardom, however, his work was already legendary on the streets of downtown NYC. Under the tag SAMO©, Basquiat's fragmented poetry and poignant symbols established a visual vocabulary that continues to inspire a new generation of graffiti artists today.
