One of thirty-six jackets produced in 2024 to mark the 25th anniversary of Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style, this XL, 100% goat suede varsity is one of only three made with “Executive Producer” embroidery — created for Duane Grant, who designed the jacket and served as co-executive producer of the game alongside Oliver “Power” Grant.

The jacket shares the visual language of the wider anniversary run: a chenille Wu-Tang “Killer Bee” logo across the back, and, on the left chest, the Wu-Tang “W” logo in chenille alongside a likeness of the classic first-edition PlayStation controller and “EXECUTIVE PRODUCER” name embroidery in place of a player name. The right chest carries the Wu-Tang backronym, with “Shaolin”/“Style” lettering above opposing goat suede-lined pockets, and “19”/“99” sleeve numbering marking the game's 1999 release. The interior satin lining repeats the alternating “Killer Bee”/“W” logo print, finished with the same woven “Shaolin Style 25 Years” neck label used across the run.

The lot is grounded further by a period paper trail: a four-page Activision royalty statement addressed to Duane Grant and Queen Ruby Holdings, dated August 15, 2001, alongside original CAD design files and development video from the jacket's creation. Rarely worn and in very good condition, with light natural fiber transfer visible on the sleeves where the black leather has marked the yellow suede, the jacket and its accompanying archive together trace a rare line from concept, through licensing paperwork, to finished garment.
