While fans patiently wait for Eminem's return with Revival, the rapper is taking us back to his OG days by way of new merchandise drops. At the beginning of November, Em announced that we could expect some limited edition apparel in support of his fan-favorite (and hit) "Stan" record. Undoubtedly these new gear drops help build anticipation for the upcoming album as well, the most recent release date attached to it is December 8th, since November 17th has came and went.
Eminem took to his not-oft used Instagram account to announce that exclusive black-on-black "Stan" merch had dropped just in time for your Black Friday shopping spree, and will be available for purchase through out the weekend, but not beyond that. The merch that's up for grabs on his official website includes a black hoodie, with the word "Stan" embroidered in black on the left-hand side. Similarly, there's a black tuque with the same "Stan" embroidery, as well as a black "Stan" wool dad hat (! even Eminem can get in on the dad hat trend, apparently). The tuque will run you $20, the wool dad hat is going for $25, while the black hoodie is $55.
This follows the Detroit MC's first "Stan" capsule release as well which dropped at the beginning of the month-- if you missed that one, it featured white apparel with black embroidery. You can actually still cop the white "Stan" hoodie with black embroidery and the accompanying t-shirt on Em's website, but as we've mentioned, this second black on black capsule is said to only be available for the weekend, so make a move if you're going to.
Check out Em's Instagram posts below which offer a closer look at the apparel. Will you be copping any of these items? We'll have to wait and see if more capsules for the "Stan" merch collection are on the way as well. We'll keep you posted on that and everything Revival-- in the meantime you can revisit his lead single, the vulnerable "Walk on Water" featuring Beyonce.
