How To Properly Measure (almost) Any Garment:

The Incredable History!

During World War I and World War II, Black soldiers faced discrimination and segregation within the U.S. military despite their invaluable contributions. One notable unit from WWI was the Harlem Hellfighters, officially known as the 369th Infantry Regiment. They were an African American infantry unit that served with distinction on the Western Front in France. Despite facing racism and being relegated to menial tasks initially, the Hellfighters proved their mettle in combat, spending more time in the front lines than any other American unit. They earned widespread recognition for their bravery, including numerous awards from the French government.

The Harlem Hellfighters and other Black soldiers of both world wars played a crucial role in shaping American history by challenging racial prejudices and paving the way for future civil rights advancements. Their sacrifices and achievements highlighted the hypocrisy of fighting for freedom abroad while denying it at home. Their courage and resilience not only contributed to the Allied victory but also sparked conversations about equality and justice within the United States, laying the groundwork for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. The Harlem Hellfighters, in particular, became symbols of Black excellence and resilience, demonstrating that despite systemic racism, African Americans could excel in the face of adversity and deserve recognition for their service and sacrifice.

As a Black History buff. NIce graphics on the front of the shirt. Sizes run small. I ordered a mans medium, for a loose fit. Too small. Ordered a large, Fits like a medium.

We truly apologize that your experiece wasn't better. As garment blanks come from various manufacturers, sizes such as S, M, L, XL may vary significantly. We recommend using them as a reference only and suggest measuring a shirt that fits you well, then comparing those measurements with our more accurate size guides. Thank you for choosing us!

Vintage look. Good quality

  • A Culture Vulture Free Zone

    Look, we're all for inclusion and the diverse celebration of Black History. However, it has become increasingly common for NON Black-owned companies to sell Black Culture while also falsely claiming to be Black-owned. This practice of cultural appropriation is not only dishonest but also disrespectful to the Black community. By profiting off of Black culture without actually supporting or empowering Black-owned businesses, these companies perpetuate systemic inequality and contribute to the erasure of Black voices and perspectives. It is important for consumers to do their research and support authentic Black-owned businesses that prioritize social justice, equity, and circulation of the Black dollar; rather than those that simply capitalize on the latest cultural trends.
