The story. The details.

LIVE AID · JULY 13, 1985

One day.
A world of music.

Some music memories are shared across an ocean. This black concert jacket brings the rainbow Africa-guitar emblem into a modern, retro-inspired everyday look.

London. Philadelphia. July 13, 1985.

Live Aid connected Wembley Stadium in London and JFK Stadium in Philadelphia on July 13, 1985. For people in the crowds and those watching from home, the date became part of their music story. This design takes its visual cue from a documented black concert jacket of that era.

A quiet front. A back you recognize.

The plain black front keeps the silhouette simple. Turn it around and the diagonal Live Aid lettering and rainbow Africa-guitar graphic bring the memory into view. The design follows the archived jacket’s two-sided contrast without adding an extra chest logo.

The emblem

The rainbow Africa-guitar silhouette and diagonal Live Aid lettering on the back.

The front

Plain black with a snap-button placket and side welt pockets.

The outline

Long raglan sleeves with a ribbed collar, cuffs and hem.

The finish

A black satin-look surface that catches the light around the colorful graphic.

A clean front for everyday wear.

Dark snaps, subtle pockets and black ribbing keep the front simple. Wear it open over a plain tee, or close the snaps to show the jacket’s shape.
