Brigade SS25 Bridges NYC and Japan
The brand, established by Aaron and Sarah Maldonado, proudly showcases its heritage from Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic in many of its clothing items, a connection that’s strongly emphasized in the brand’s newest collection. For instance, the Young Lords polo shirt incorporates images derived from past marches led by the Puerto Rican Young Lords, while the Lares button-up shirt displays the initial flag of Puerto Rico in the center. Additionally, the phrase “There is a war going on outside” can be found on another camouflage graphic tee.
