The Dozens Creative
Too CHICAGO FOR COMPLEXCON
Too Complex For Complexcon
This Dozens exclusive is a tribute to Chicago's culture and its influence on creatives in the city. This shirt is a reminder to everyone attending Complexcon that the city of Chicago has had impact on culture since way before COMPLEX. Chicago's culture is inspiring, motivating, and thriving and for many Chicagoans, investing in our communities breaks the barriers that prevent access to larger opportunities. We are selling these limited edition shirts to local homies who want to share the message.
