Layer Cake Of New York Heavyweight Tees

A top-three bestseller and a more recent release (December 2024), Layer Cake of New York is PJ’s layered tribute to his journey—from selling art in the subway to running a storefront across from Union Square Park. The concept was sparked by his girlfriend Jillian, who suggested a “Layer Cake” as a metaphor for showcasing life beneath the surface.

Each illustrated layer reveals a piece of New York: the East River’s giant squid nodding to 20,000 Leagues Under NYC, the MTA subway with PJ selling prints from his mobile cart, pizza and infrastructure stacked above, and a surreal underground world of rats, alligators, and a ninja turtle. The skyline crowns it all—featuring the Chrysler Building (PJ’s favorite), the Empire State, and the Woolworth—while the missing slice lives on the chest.

Printed front and back in a single-color, architectural line style, this 7.5 oz heavyweight cement grey option delivers a clean, structured feel with everyday wearability.

Move here and get your slice—or get eaten alive.
