Sidemen member Josh "Zerkaa" took to his Twitch stream to tease brand new merchandise featuring none other than the popular Nickelodeon cartoon character, SpongeBob SquarePants. In the stream, the 30-year-old was seen donning a black-colored hoodie with a Spongebob graphic. Additionally, the phrase "SDMN XIX" was also displayed on the front of the apparel.
The merch is expected to be released sometime later today (19.10.22). A teaser was also shared on the official Twitter page of Sidemen Clothing. Speaking about the collaboration, Zerkaa playfully pretended to mistakenly leak the new merch by drawing attention to his hoodie. He said:
"Who's that?!"
