The trio of brands collaborated on a series of hoodies repping over 20 HBCUs, including Howard University, Morehouse College, Florida A&M University, and Hampton University.

"I am thrilled that this collection, which celebrates all of the culture, community and connectivity which an HBCU experience brings, is being showcased by Urban Outfitters and Champion,” said Treis Hill, partner of Alife and Hampton University alum, in an official statement.

This New Merch Collab Is Celebrating HBCUs

MFs been selling overpriced hoodies for a decade.

Go to a HBCU’s website, find the link to the bookstore and buy stuff from there.

don’t give these devils any money

Looks like they only want to use the mainstream HBCUs. If you wanna buy legit apparel and actually support HBCUs then don't go to them, use the school website.

I don't see NSU so

 

[Wiles]

It looks fake

Polo sport status

 

[PortCityProphet]

If you gon get something for a HBCU go on Etsy or find an alumni who making stuff.
Lowkey Etsy is a goldmine for HBCU merch.
