Behind the Brand

"THEY WEREN'T GIVING US THE LIGHT WE DESERVE SO WE MADE OUR OWN $H!T FOR THE CULTURE!!!"

As an alumnus of an HBCU, I was having a hard time finding the right apparel for my school, Savannah State University. I was always into fashion and wearing clothes ever since I was a kid, so I decided if I couldn’t find the right clothing item that represented my school, that I would just create one and that’s where Vintage School Apparel started. I designed a hat for myself and got a lot of positive feedback from it so I started making them for others as well. I wanted something that not only represented my HBCU, but I wanted to represent other HBCUs through the culture of fashion and the black excellence of entrepreneurship.
