The artist behind the iconic "Hope" poster featuring Barack Obama, Shepard Fairey, is collaborating with Levi's for an upcoming collection titled Obey x Levi's. Set to debut October 29 at Levi's flagship store in Times Square in New York City, the collaboration will feature Fairey's street art and his infamous Andre the Giant graphic.

Artist Shepard Fairey is creating a co-branded capsule collection with Levi’s that will go on sale in select Levi’s stores beginning Oct. 29. Created in partnership with Fairey’s Obey clothing label, the line includes T-shirts, denim and jean jackets, which will incorporate Fairey’s artwork. The line will be branded Obey x Levi’s, and hangtags are emblazoned with Fairey’s seminal Andre the Giant graphic. Pieces will retail from $34.50 to $148. Fairey, known for his street art as well as creating the iconic Barack Obama “Hope” poster during last year’s election, will install an original work outside the Times Square Levi’s flagship during a party on Oct. 29 to celebrate the collection.
