Stussy sat down with Tower Records in Japan to celebrate the retailer’s 30th anniversary. Bearing Stussy’s trademark script, the front of the t-shirt is emblazoned with a bold “no music, no life” slogan. On the reverse the words “face the music” are seen encircling Tower Records 30th Anniversary logo.
