Different People. Same Coordinates.

RICANPRIDE FIELD NOTES · DROP 01

Some people know Puerto Rico through the streets they grew up on. Others know it through a parent’s voice, a kitchen, a song, or a story retold until it feels like their own. The connection can look different from one person to the next. It does not need a test.

That is the idea behind Different people. Same coordinates.

A point we carry

18.2208° N, 66.5901° W marks a point on the island. On a map, it is a pair of numbers. On a garment, it is a quiet prompt to remember a place that can stay close even when daily life happens elsewhere.

One point cannot speak for every town, family, or experience in Puerto Rico. We use it as a shared reference with room for each wearer's own story.

Three ways to wear the idea

The Same Coordinates Pepper hoodie pairs cream coordinates with an abstract hill, sun, and sea illustration. The washed Pepper fabric keeps the mark grounded and easy to live in.

On the Ivory tee, black botanical and coastline artwork frames the same numbers in two lines. It has more visual presence while leaving the meaning open.

The Isla hoodie takes a softer route: a warm tan island horizon, one script word, and the coordinates below. Each piece is an illustration inspired by connection to the island, not a surveyed view of a particular place.

Different streets. Same coordinates.

Belonging has more than one shape

You can have grown up on the island. You can have grown up hearing about it. You can be learning your family's history now. You can speak Spanish easily, unevenly, or not at all. None of those details gives someone else the right to measure your connection.

Clothing cannot prove who you are. It can give you a way to carry what matters to you. That is all this capsule is trying to do.
