Great bundle! I got the both the black and green. Hat and socks are excellent quality. This is one of my favorite Black owned businesses to support.

WHAT WAS THE GREEN BOOK?
The Negro Motorist Green Book was a guide that helped Black travelers find safe places to eat, sleep, and exist during segregation.
Published from 1936 to 1966, it wasnβt just a book β it was a lifeline.
WHY IT MATTERED
Traveling wasnβt simple.
Every stop had to be calculated.
Where could you go?
Where were you safe?
Where would you be turned away?
Movement required awareness.
And awareness became survival.
This collection is our interpretation of that reality.
Each piece represents movement β across cities, across states, across experiences.
Itβs about navigating spaces that werenβt built for usβ¦
and still showing up with presence.
This story lives beyond the clothing.
It lives in the people who wear it. The spaces we create.
The culture we continue to build.
