Yasuke Wired for War | Sweatshirt | Originology | Black History X

$57.17 AUD (plus tax)

An African samurai. Not a legend. A man with a record.

The Yasuke Sweatshirt from Black History X puts a lone swordsman inside a red sun, rings him with two lines that read like a creed, and sets the name underneath in type that looks half-carved, half-glitched.

Wired for war. Programmed for honour. Quiet blades, loud legends.

Yasuke arrived in Japan in the sixteenth century and entered the service of Oda Nobunaga, one of the three men who unified the country. He was given a stipend, a residence and a sword, and he fought in Nobunaga's campaigns. Japanese sources record him. He was there, in the room, at the end.

The story isn't that it's unbelievable. It's that nobody told you.

This one is for everyone who found out late and never got over it.

Why you'll love it:

  • Samurai silhouette set inside a deep red sun
  • Quiet Blades, Loud Legends ringing the base
  • Glitched-type YASUKE wordmark
  • Sleeve-branded BHX

About Black History X:
