Matty Boy: Chrome Hearts Collabs, Eric Emanuel Shorts & Anti Promo

Who is Matty Boy?

Matty Boy is an artist and designer based in New York, known for a raw, hand-drawn graphic language that reads more like sketchbook art than merch. His recurring motifs — the Chomper teeth, Sex Records, Stay Fast, 99 Eyes, Vanity Affair, Brain, Caution and Spider Web — began as drawings and ended up screen-printed and embroidered across heavyweight fleece, cotton jersey and game-day mesh. He is best known for three bodies of work: the long-running Chrome Hearts collaboration, the Eric Emanuel EE shorts, and his own label Anti Promo. Everything stocked here comes from those catalogs — genuine collaboration product, never reprints or blanks.

The Chrome Hearts x Matty Boy collaboration

The Matty Boy Chrome Hearts pieces are the core of the collection. Matty Boy supplied the artwork behind the Cross Patch, Sex Records, Stay Fast, America, Sadistic and Chomper graphics, which Chrome Hearts produced on its own heavyweight blanks — brushed-back cotton fleece with ribbed cuffs and hem, cut boxy and slightly cropped. The deepest run is in the Matty Boy Chrome Hearts hoodies, where the same motif often appears across several colorways: black, red, heather grey, blue, purple, brown and camo. The graphics carry across product types too, so a motif you like on fleece usually exists on a t-shirt and a crewneck as well.

Eric Emanuel x Matty Boy: the EE shorts

The Eric Emanuel collaboration puts Matty Boy's artwork on EE's signature mesh short. The best known pair is the 99 Eyes EE short in slime and orange, with a black and blue colorway alongside it. They sit above the knee with an elastic waist and drawcord, and live in Matty Boy shorts next to the Chrome Hearts mesh, cargo and carpenter styles.

Anti Promo: Matty Boy's own label

Anti Promo is the label Matty Boy runs himself, built on a knowingly anti-marketing attitude — the joke being a promo brand that refuses to promote. It covers the Anti Promo NYC tee, the Eat Your Greens tee, and the 99 Eyes graphics that run across hoodies, nylon shorts and the chino in Matty Boy sweatpants and trousers.

Shop Matty Boy by category

The catalog is organised by product type, and every motif is threaded across the categories so you can follow a graphic rather than a garment:

• Hoodies — the deepest category: Chomper, Sex Records, Stay Fast, Brain, Caution and Cross Patch on heavyweight fleece.
• T-shirts — short sleeve, long sleeve and thermal, including the Sex Records, America and Anti Promo NYC prints.
• Shorts — the Eric Emanuel EE mesh shorts plus Chrome Hearts cargo, carpenter and Form Team styles.
• Sweatpants — fleece sweatpants, Dyno cargo pants, the Chomper track pant, the 99 Eyes chino and Patches on Patches denim.
• Sweatshirts — the same artwork without a hood, including the pink Vanity Affair and the America crewneck.

Fits, fabrics and sizing

Most pieces here are cut boxy and slightly oversized, which is how the graphics were designed to sit. The fleece is heavyweight and brushed on the inside with ribbed cuffs and hem; tees run on a mid-to-heavyweight cotton jersey with a classic crew neck; the long-sleeve and thermal styles add a waffle or ribbed texture built for layering; the mesh shorts and jerseys are a lighter, breathable knit. Take your normal size for a true fit, or size up one for the oversized drape the artwork was drawn for. Prints are placed to sit flat wash after wash — wash cold, inside out, and hang dry to protect the graphic.

Shipping, returns and authenticity

Every order ships free worldwide with no minimum spend, is dispatched in 1–3 days, delivered in 7–10 days after dispatch (8–13 business days total) with tracking. Returns are open for 30 days from delivery on unworn items. Every piece is genuine collaboration product with its original graphic placement intact — no reprints, no blanks.

Frequently asked questions

Who is Matty Boy?

Matty Boy is a New York-based artist and designer known for his hand-drawn graphics and streetwear collaborations. His work with Chrome Hearts and Eric Emanuel turned motifs like Chomper, Sex Records and Stay Fast into some of the most sought-after collaboration pieces in the market, and he also runs his own label, Anti Promo.

Is Matty Boy affiliated with Chrome Hearts?

Yes. Matty Boy is a long-time Chrome Hearts collaborator and supplied the artwork behind pieces such as the Cross Patch, Sex Records, Stay Fast and America graphics. The Chrome Hearts Matty Boy hoodies, tees and crewnecks stocked here come from that collaborative catalog rather than from general Chrome Hearts production.

What is Anti Promo?

Anti Promo is Matty Boy's own label, built around a knowingly anti-marketing attitude. It covers pieces like the Anti Promo NYC tee, the Eat Your Greens tee and the 99 Eyes graphics that appear on hoodies, nylon shorts and chinos. It sits alongside the Chrome Hearts and Eric Emanuel collaborations rather than replacing them.

Are the Eric Emanuel x Matty Boy shorts real EE shorts?

Yes. The collaboration puts Matty Boy's artwork on Eric Emanuel's signature mesh short, including the 99 Eyes slime and orange colorway and a black and blue pair. They keep the EE silhouette — above the knee, elastic waist with a drawcord — and are stocked here in the shorts category.

How do Matty Boy pieces fit?

Most pieces are cut boxy and slightly oversized, because that is how the graphics were designed to sit. Take your normal size for a true fit, or size up one for a fuller, more oversized drape. Fleece is heavyweight with ribbed cuffs and hem; tees run mid-to-heavyweight with a classic crew neck.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are dispatched in 1–3 days, delivered in 7–10 days after dispatch (8–13 business days total), with tracking on every order. Shipping is free worldwide with no minimum spend. Returns are accepted for 30 days from delivery on unworn items, with free prepaid-label.
