Brigade redefines its creative narrative in the Spring/Summer 2025 collection, weaving together local and global influences. Based in NYC, the brand, founded by the Maldonado siblings, showcases a vibrant lineup inspired by extensive travels, particularly in Japan, while paying homage to its Puerto Rican and Dominican roots. Notable pieces like the Young Lords polo and Lares button-up reflect deep historical connections and socio-political themes, amplifying the struggles and resilience of underrepresented communities. The collection artfully balances personal heritage, street culture, and global experiences, resonating with cultural consciousness.
One of the standout pieces is the Young Lords polo shirt, inspired by the activist group that fought for Puerto Rican rights, incorporating archival silhouettes.
Brigade's collection blends cultural pride with a worldly appreciation, reflecting founder Aaron Maldonado's travels and celebrating Puerto Rican and Dominican heritage.
