Bring Me Back To My Childhood in Brooklyn

Let me start by saying, I’ll always be a Brooklyn girl. My heart belongs to Brooklyn and so does my childhood. The pictures I purchased are absolutely beautiful. The shirts are soft to the touch and the perfect fit. I also had an issue with the shipping but it was corrected right away.

This is my second purchase from the…

This is my second purchase from the Brooklyn initiative. I got the T-shirt with the kid in the afro and the little glasses. I bought a second one because I love the first one so much I was worried I would wear it out too fast and I wouldn't be able to find another one somewhere down the road. So I've got one in reserve for when that time comes. The graphic is so detailed I get looks every time I wear it. Which is you all dressed up on some chicken I collect t-shirts and this one is at the top of my list.

Love these shirts

I love the graphic tees.
As a native Brooklynite, I love the unique prints.
Really appreciate that you offer the size XS and that the prints are very well blended into the shirt.

Spreading Love, The Brooklyn Way

I made it my continuing decision to purchase gifts from independent shops. I have my go to vendors but when I came upon Brooklyn Initiative, I couldn't help but support. The designs were great, and the price point was reasonable. I wish them much success.
