The Incredible 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you Black-owned?

Yes, and thanks for asking! TheBlackest Co. is proudly Black-owned and ByBlack certified, administered by U.S. Black Chambers.

How long does shipping take?

Most orders print and ship in 2-4 business days, then take 3-8 business days to arrive. Business days are Monday to Friday, not counting holidays. Every item is made to order, which takes a little extra time, but ensures quality, reduces waste, and saves water.

How do I know what size?

Measure something you already own and love the fit of, then compare to our size chart on each product page. Our shirts generally run true to size - if you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit, sizing up is usually the way to go.

Can I use discount codes with...?

Good news - a lot of our codes do stack! We have so many running at once that the easiest way to know is to add them at checkout and see what happens. If it works, you'll see it. If not, no worries - the best deal will still always apply!

Is this made to order?

Yup - just like a birthday cake! Every item is made to order, which takes a little extra time, but ensures quality, reduces waste, and saves water.

What's your return policy?

If your order arrives misprinted, damaged or wrong, we'll replace it free. Contact us within 30 days of delivery with your order number, and we'll tell you exactly what we need to get it fixed fast.

Because each item is made to order, we're not able to accept returns or exchanges for size or color choices...or life's regrets. We don't carry inventory to swap out and we don't resell returns.

Wait!? I've seen this design somewhere else!

Probably. Our popular & original designs get stolen constantly, and if you buy it anywhere but our site, hoping to save a few bucks, you're rolling the dice on sketchy bank charges, garbage print quality, cheap threadbare garments, and sellers who may never send the item anyway - they don't even have a real print file, just a screenshot scraped off the internet. We only sell this design here, period. Every other listing is stolen artwork from shady companies cashing in on our hard work, and every dollar spent there is a dollar taken from a small Black-owned business instead of supporting one. Buy Black. Buy original.

Woke? I never fell asleep.

I was wearing this and someone commented how woke it was with a chuckle. I replied: I never went to sleep in the first place….These fellas were serious hard-asses. Google them. Pretty amazing.

Damn right!! We often call our products 'jackass detectors': some folks see them and you can just...tell what you're dealing with 🤣 Thank you for your support & we agree: everyone should know about the Harlem Hellfighters! Appreciate your support!

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!

Shirt is awesome. Nice material feels soft to touch. Only complaint is that shirt is not pre shrunk. After washing, this shirt has noticeable shrinkage. Might want to order a size up and wash in COLD. Other than that very nice shirt.

  • 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.
