The Halal Guys, the fast-casual Middle Eastern restaurant famous for pioneering American halal food, is announcing a partnership with legendary illustrator and graffiti artist Kelly Graval, known internationally as RISK. Together they will debut an exclusive collection of The Halal Guys apparel.

RISK will create three custom designs for The Halal Guys that will be turned into various limited-edition t-shirts, hoodies and hats. Beginning this fall and throughout 2018, these special edition swag items will be awarded to top members of The Halal Guys' loyalty program.

"As we approach the one-year anniversary of launching our rewards program, we wanted to give our most loyal fans something special," said Andrew Eck, director of marketing for The Halal Guys. "We're excited to see RISK's incredible talent and our brand come together through these custom pieces."
