Karl Kani

Karl Kani is one of the first clothing brands that joined forces with hip hop culture, featuring celebrities like Tupac, Notorious B.I.G. and other hip hop moguls in ads.

Notorious B.I.G.

Tupac Shakur

Nas

Diddy

The brand will celebrate it’s 20th year anniversary with the Source Magazine later this year, and also in Europe with the official German premiere of the Notorious movie.

Karl Kani himself has been called the “Godfather of Urban Fashion”, and it is clear that he is not about to fade off the scene anytime soon.

He also launched Kani Ladies in 2001, recently revamping it into a more trend-right sexy urban line.

Check out video from the spring 2009 photoshoot, and brand new merchandise from Kani Ladies below:

    I got much for Kani. As a matter of a fact, back in the day I use to rock a Kani line that had a 2×3 inch chrome chest plate surrounded by silver sticked banners/ribbons…

    I had the jeans, the t-shirts and three of the black sweaters! I miss that line. I wish and have been trying to get a hold of another black sweater just like the one I once had… I even checked all up on google and ebay.

    I can even find a picture, let alone someone that has a XXL or XXXL that I can get ahold of.

    Mr. Kani, HELP!!! lol
