HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA
You don’t look a day over 249!
This summer, the country is celebrating its semiquincentennial, or if you prefer less of a mouthful, its 250th birthday. With it being such a major milestone, you can expect the summer to be an exaggerated patriotic party, and this collection – aptly dubbed Nu Patriot – is primed to outfit you for every occasion.
Not only is Nu Patriot predictably rich in red, white, and blue (with a surprising pop of green gingham), but it also strongly showcases the emblems of Americana – the Stars and Stripes, the Statue of Liberty, even eagles. It also incorporates more subtle nods to the American spirit, like a heavy presence of quilts and a hand-drawn toile of historic images and national landmarks. We reimagined our original flag jacket that put us on the map, and created an unprecedented beaded biker – with beaded boots to match. And, of course, we embraced it in the accessories, from vintage finds transformed into jewelry to a custom-created Mummy’s Bundle choker designed to mimic Old Glory, and WWII victory pins we spent many months collecting.
It’s elevated Americana glam. It feels like summertime and timeless tradition, with a reverent yet celebratory spirit. After all, two-and-a-half centuries of democracy is certainly nothing to sneeze at. Freedom is beautiful, and we wear it well.

STORY:
FLAG JACKET
The country’s quarter-millennial is about as good a reason as any to revisit one of our most beloved jackets of all time.
The original flag denim jacket debuted during our inaugural summer collection in 1991 and it was one of our first big “made it” moments. The jacket was a classic trucker in a stonewashed denim, emblazoned with the traditional stars-andstripes. It was instantly popular among our customer base, and then Neiman Marcus picked it up, which felt like our first splash in the national marketplace.
It was also one of our most memorable “Have we lost our minds?” moments. For the flag on the back of that jacket, we committed to using wool strips that were hand-dyed by a woman in our headquarter-
hometown of Yoakum. That meant this sweet woman, a rug hooker by trade, would have to dye wool enough to fulfill those orders, and then we would have to strip all that wool and apply it to all those jackets ourselves. (In hindsight, it makes those jackets all the more unique and collectible, but boy, our fingers may never be the same.)
Needless to say, we didn’t attempt that endeavor for this iteration, but we did stay true to the original aesthetic, with a classic silhouette and soft blue denim, and of course, finished with a big, bold StarSpangled Banner.

PATRIOTIC FINDS
Collection accessories, like everything else, are intentional. We spend a year, sometimes longer, collecting – picking through flea markets, vendors’ baskets at antique shows, online auctions – all the fun places you might find a piece of treasure. Some are vintage and valuable, like authentic postal carrier bags, and some are contemporary and kitschy, like enamel flag pins and buckles.

STORY:
WWII SWEETHEART PINS
Once worn to signify devotion to someone in the service, these sparkly symbols are now coveted collectible war-era relics.
WWII sweetheart pins (or sometimes called victory pins) are ornate brooches or locket pins that soldiers would leave with loved ones when they deployed overseas to fight in the war. They were worn with pride to show support on the homefront, and while they were often gifted to wives and girlfriends (hence the “sweetheart”), it was also common for mothers and family members to don something similar to indicate their connection and loyalty to a serviceman.
Naturally, the aesthetic for these pins was patriotic – red, white, & blue, flags, eagle insignia – and some were simply an ornate and optimistic “V” for victory. Many also indicated the branch of military, such as Army, Navy, Marine Corps, or Air Force.
Given that it was wartime, the baubles were typically made from sterling silver or brass, sometimes crafted from wood or early plastics, like lucite or celluloid. They’re not considered fine jewelry which means they’re affordable enough to actually collect – and feel comfortable wearing.
In a collection designed to celebrate a milestone anniversary of independence, we’d be remiss not to incorporate elements from such an integral chapter of the American story. We spent several months acquiring an assortment of these WWII pins to offer alongside Nu Patriot, and with the current trend of “jewelrification” (i.e. piling on the pins), it brings us pride to offer a sartorial salute to these bygone servicemen and their sweethearts.

STYLING YOUR SUMMER
Layering your looks is a fool-proof approach to looking polished and put-together, but man, that can be a challenge in a sweltering summer.
To the rescue? Vests. Do not mishear us, vests are key to your closet all year long, but they can truly save the day in the summer. They’re sleeveless, they’re rarely form-fitted, and they’re remarkably versatile. Throw one on over your sundress to elevate your look from effortless to intentional or watch the way a statement vest can totally transform even the simplest tank and a pair of cutoffs.
If vests aren’t your vibe (although we truly believe they work for everyone), level up your look by leaning into your accessories. Layer your necklaces, stack your cuffs, add a bold belt or a head-turning topper – all of these are finishing touches that say to the world, “I showed up to be seen today.” without breaking a (literal or figurative) sweat.

AMERICAN AS APPLE PIE
From the Star-Spangled Banner to the Liberty Bell, we wanted this collection to embody the American spirit.
We did it in obvious, literal ways – an exquisitely beaded Lady Liberty on a biker jacket and boot, flags on denim jackets and cotton tees, phrases like “Land of the Free” and “Spirit of ‘76” and “USA” emblazoned on apparel. There are inlaid eagles in bold boot designs, patriotic bridle rosettes reworked into statement cuffs, and custom prints that include every American icon you can imagine.
But we also incorporated key elements that feel American in a way you can’t quite put your finger on, namely quilts. We teamed up with an extraordinary visionary, Shapeau (who, by the way, is an emergency room physician by day), to create a collection of truly one-of-a-kind pieces crafted from authentic vintage quilts, ranging from chic statement jackets to showstopping wrap skirts. Some are classically patriotic in red, white, and blue, but others are simply colorful creations that were forgotten or underappreciated, and they were given a second chance to shine. And, really, isn’t that the American dream?

RED, WHITE, & TOILE
There is something inexplicably Southern and timeless about toile and transforming it into a patriotic print lends an elegance to Americana.
Ironically, toile is of European origin, with Irish roots and a strong French history. When it made its way to America in the late 18th Century, it most often depicted scenes from the American Revolution, which kind of makes this iteration celebrating 250 years of independence feel like a full-circle moment.
We envisioned it to present as a traditional toile at a glance, but up close, it’s imbued with icons of Americana, from bald eagles to Mount Rushmore and the Alamo to Lady Liberty. It features landmarks like the Grand Canyon and cowboy scenes from the Wild West. The imagery is all hand-drawn and brings an extraordinary amount of detail to the one-of-a-kind print. And while blue would’ve fit just fine into the patriotic palette, the red colorway felt bold and fierce, like the American spirit.

BOOTSCOOTIN’ AMERICAN PRIDE
Nothing sets the vibe quite like a soundtrack, and with such a milestone birthday on the horizon for our country, it seems fitting to saturate your speakers with songs about the good ol’ U.S. of A.
We created a patriotic playlist to blast at your barbeques, pool parties, and picnics from Memorial Day to Fourth of July and beyond. The songs are either explicitly about America or they have strong undercurrent of the American spirit – songs that make you proud to be here.
You can find the playlist on our Spotify channel or simply scan the QR code and get to jamming out the American way.

FUR’S FUN SIDE
Generally reserved for exquisite outerwear, there’s something irresistible about fur when it’s implemented in an unexpected way. And styling it for summer? Even better. We designed a couple suede statement pieces adorned with Mongolian fur embellishments; the vest features fur shoulders that lend a fun volume to the silhouette and the shorts are a sassy take on wooly chaps. They’re not only eye-catching, they’re totally unforgettable.
