"For us, it wasn't enough to just create a softer, more lasting garment. We aimed to create a timeless product for current students and alumni that when worn could reflect the immense pride and high esteem in which we hold our beloved HBCUs."

WE HONOR THOSE THAT CAME BEFORE

To matriculate at an HBCU is to be inducted into a long legacy of undeniable Black excellence; and with every thread, we hope to honor all those who helped found and build what I and so many other HBCU graduates have come to know as a home away from home.

THE YARD IS HALLOWED GROUND

For some, it was the place where you met your future business partner, your spouse, your line brother or sister. For others, it was a revival, a transformative place where you became who you were meant to be.

WE CRAFT OUR PRODUCTS TO REMIND YOU OF YOUR UNIQUE HBCU EXPERIENCE

Craftsmen knit our sweaters with some of the softest, yet most durable yarns. Our lightweight yarns were chosen to allow you to pay homage to your illustrious alma mater throughout the year.

All aspects of the manufacturing process ensure the garment lasts for years and feels luxurious for all that time. Cutting edge manufacturing technology combines with the human touch of seasoned craftsmen and designers to yield a timeless garment designed to capture the spirit of your beloved HBCU within every stitch.

"They gave us segregation, we gave them Spelman. They gave us misery, we gave them Morehouse. They gave us terror, we gave them Tuskegee. They gave us failures, we gave them Fisk. They gave us drama, we gave them Dillard. They gave us hell, we gave them Howard. They gave us heartache, we gave them Hampton."

"I wanted to create a garment that older generations of HBCU grads might pass down to the next generation..."

The Black College Grad brand was created to reflect the prestige and profound pride we all have for our beloved HBCUs. As a graduate of Morehouse College, it was very important to me that we created garments that reflected more of how we felt on the inside about our schools than how they may be perceived from the outside.

We set out to make heirloom quality garments to give you those same feelings you once had when you first stepped onto the yard. We hope to make you proud.
