Thanks to DKNY, pizza boxes will prove an advocate for apparel, as the fashion house will be delivering custom tees and totes in branded boxes through Dec. 21 as a nod to its eponymous 100% DKNY campaign.

We are nearing Peak Ugly Sweater...

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield and Barstool Sports announced a line of Baker-branded charity apparel that will secure proceeds for the Special Olympics of Ohio.
