Return Is Resistance
This jersey carries history on its back.
The Diaspo Rico Boxy Jersey is rooted in Puerto Rican migration, labor, and return. Built from layered archival imagery and graphic language, the design pulls from early 20th-century migration records, labor photography, and state documentation. The number 787 anchors the piece to Puerto Rico, while the phrase “Return Is Resistance” affirms that coming home, reclaiming land, and reconnecting with ancestry is a political act.
The boxy, relaxed fit nods to classic football jerseys while living comfortably in streetwear and everyday movement. Lightweight mesh keeps it breathable. The cut keeps it intentional.
This isn’t just a jersey.
It’s an archive in motion.
