Founded in 2013 by Jonathan Coffie, Kelly Foli, Winfred Mensah, and Richard Kweku Ormano, Free The Youth has evolved from a social media initiative showcasing Ghanaian street style into a multifaceted company encompassing a fashion brand, creative agency, and NGO. The collective aims to empower Ghanaian and African youth by connecting them to global art scenes through fashion inspired by Ghanaian culture. Their designs often incorporate elements that pay homage to local traditions, as seen in the Tear Chain Tracksuit’s side chain detailing, which reflects motifs commonly found in Ghanaian art and textiles.
The Tear Chain Tracksuit is part of Free The Youth’s broader mission to promote creative freedom and community development. By merging contemporary fashion with cultural heritage, the brand provides a platform for African youth to express themselves and engage with global artistic communities. The tracksuit is currently available for purchase on Free The Youth’s official website, offering fashion enthusiasts an opportunity to support a brand that is both stylish and socially conscious.
