Heritage, the in-house label from Massachusetts-based boutique Unite (which is located on the original path of the Underground Railroad), worked with Dr Romanelli on an impressive set of baseball jackets. Made from vintage US military tents from the Vietnam war era, each jacket was overdyed, chainstitched in Idaho for the visuals, and color coordinated via stitch color, tent color, zipper and ribbing. The result is a set of timeless, quality items that recall history through clothing. Available exclusively at Unite. A portion of all proceeds are donated to the David Ruggles Center for Underground Railroad Studies.
