Deal

Urban Outfitters signs deal with Taylor Bennett Indie rapper Taylor Bennett has been a fan of Urban Outfitters since the clothing giant opened their shop in his Chicago hometown years ago. “Me, my brother [Chance the Rapper], and [rapper] Vic Mensa would go down there,” Bennett says. “They were the first place we could actually get skinny jeans from—[Levi’s] 510s, 511s and slim fits.” So when an opportunity to collaborate with UO (also the store where he bought his first pair of Vans) as an official ambassador arose, Bennett, of course, was all in.
