Frequently Asked Questions

What does "seasoned with" mean here?

Haiti didn't just make you — it flavored you. History, pride, faith: the roots. Ayiti — the Taíno name for the land, meaning "land of high mountains" — plus kompa, Haiti's heartbeat music, and Kreyòl, the language that carried a revolution.

Is this a compliment to Haitian culture?

A crown — it names Haiti by its oldest name and claims every part of the culture with pride. First free Black republic energy, worn on the chest.

What makes this a good gift?

For Haitians in the diaspora and on the island — Haitian Flag Day, Independence Day (January 1), birthdays, homecoming gifts. The gift that says "lakay."

Where can I wear this?

Flag Day celebrations, festivals, family gatherings, everyday pride — the blue and red go anywhere.

How should I style this?

Flag-forward — blue and red accents if you want to rep, or let the statement stand alone. Pride doesn't need permission.
