Frederick McKinley Jones, Unisex, Three-panel Historical Portrait Hoodie (City Champs)
Defend Black Memories...Wear history with resolve and pride. This sweatshirt carries the story of Frederick McKinley Jones, a self-taught engineer from Cincinnati whose inventions revolutionized the way food and supplies were transported worldwide.
There's a historical portrait and patent drawing on the front, with a Defend Black Memories shield on the back.
This mid-weight fleece hoodie combines thoughtful construction with a quiet, documentary-style design. The front features a portrait panel and subtle text, while the back carries a small emblem reading “Defend Black Memories,” giving the piece a reflective, archival feel. Soft ring-spun cotton and recycled polyester create a warm, smooth hand-feel that wears in, not out.
Practical details: adjustable hood with metal grommets, a roomy kangaroo pocket, reinforced neck tape, and double-needle seams make it reliable for everyday layering. It sits at a regular fit with minimal shrinkage, so it keeps its shape and presence through regular wear.
Each Historical Portrait piece comes with a QR code that takes you to a brief bio about the person or erasure event depicted on the garment.
