Description
Overview Founded in 2016 by Julius Tillery, BLACK ACRES is a Black-owned cotton farm in Northampton County, North Carolina. Julius, a 5th generation cotton farmer, typically specializes in cultivating cotton for home décor, accessories, and jewelry—but this season’s partnership with Vans marks BLACK ACRES’ first time farming cotton to be spun into yarns for t-shirt knitting. Partnering with a local North Carolina spinner to create the yarns for the Black Acres Cotton Stalk T-Shirt, Julius’ cotton both highlights and uplifts the uniqueness of the local community. Designed in collaboration with Julius the tee features a hand-drawn cotton stalk with three flowers blooming from the sturdy stem, the graphics on this crewneck tee represent the pride and artistry that Julius and his crew impart on their craft. Checkerboard details entwine with the stem as a nod to Vans’ heritage, while the phrase “Cotton Is Our Culture” comes from Julius’s farm and his family’s roots in the business.
