Today happened to be the first day I wore my Black Camo 2.0 Sleeveless Performance Hoodie, so I felt inclined to write this review of it. I decided try it on since this will probably be the last warm day of the year here in Chicago. The first thing I noticed was how comfortable it felt. The second thing I noticed was how I kept catching sight of my reflection in store windows (I'm 68 years old and had come to accept that my days of doing that were far behind me). And finally, I noticed that people passing me on the street seemed more inclined to make eye contact, nod, smile, and even speak to me. While I can believe some of this was due to the unseasonable weather. However, since yesterday was even warmer, I am attributing some of it to my sleek new hoodie. Since fall is returning to Chicago starting tomorrow, I will likely have to waiting until next year to wear it again, but this hoodie now has a lasting place in my spring/summer rotation.

This tee was designed in honor of the amazing Dr. John Carlos who planned and participated one of the most iconic moments in Sports activism history. At the 1968 Olympics, John Carlos raised his fist at the podium to bring attention to the inequalities and atrocities being faced by Black people back in America, and for those oppressed all over the world. He was kicked out of the Olympic village and off the team. When he arrived back home, he was met with hate, death threats and backlash. For a long time he couldn't find work and was outcast for the stance that he took. No matter the hardship, John Carlos never wavered and he has dedicated his life to fighting racism, social injustice and advocating for black athletes to use their platforms to speak out for our people. We salute John Carlos and the lifetime of work he has done for Black people.
Actively Black is a premium Black-owned brand creating athleisure and sports apparel that celebrates culture, community, and excellence.
