JIN t-shirts are the creative offspring of Khalid Zahid. Arab linguists may be surprised by the t-shirt labels name choice, which means possessed by madness; and hence meaning bereft of reason; or mad, insane, unsound in mind or intellect, or wanting therein.
A few words about the philosophy behind JIN according to its creator... “Jin is the merging between our yearnings and our conscience, our mind and our soul, our base desires and our higher selves. The inspiration for it comes from that part of us that goes crazy, takes risks and feels alive. In Arabic «Jin» is that devil that spurs us on though he is concealed in his own realm. It is our familiar spirit that lures us into the undiscovered. It whispers to us to go crazy, to Jin.
To bring these conflicting emotions together Jin is a blend of pop culture and funk with more than a touch of Arabic to lend it that spicy edge. It is a coming together of East and West in the form of modern art and ancient scripture. This combination between different cultures defines free thinking, powerful emotions and lends poetry to our lives.”
