East Coast Connection

Peter Rosenberg at East Coast Connection Vol.4

FuturePastNYC X Peter Rosenberg

East Coast Connection Vol. 4 brought out the vintage community for a full day of NYC’s biggest t-shirt exchange on October 3rd. The venue was full with over 40+ t-shirt vendors and 700 shoppers/collectors. People came from all over the country and even some from overseas. Some familiar faces were even spotted during the event  such as radio/TV personality Peter Rosenberg. In NYC Peter Rosenberg is best recognized for being the voice of radio station Hot 97. He is also notably known for his work with WWE as a host/commentator and for his work with ESPN/YES network covering sports. However his appreciation for vintage t-shirts is unknown to many. His love for wrestling as a child sparked his interest in vintage wrestling t-shirts. In an article with Hypebeast in 2017 Peter Rosenberg discusses his love for vintage wrestling t-shirts and how he sees an opportunity for vintage merchandise to evolve into something new. “Seeing how the merch game has become its own market is amazing, but also seeing how it’s led to a new market where you can have stuff like another collaboration between PUMA, the WWE and Foot Locker that does so well is cool too,” explains Peter Rosenberg.

Despite his love for wrestling his interest in vintage t-shirts goes beyond that and during ECC Vol. 4 Rosenberg was seen wearing a vintage Janet Jackson t-shirt.

Special thank you to Peter Rosenberg for being apart of East Coast Connection.
