The Last Hoodie

My older brother Alex was obsessed with Palm Angels. Every birthday he would tell me, “One day we’ll both own one.” I always laughed because we couldn’t afford it.

Last Christmas he surprised me. He had saved money for almost a year and bought me my very first Palm Angels hoodie. He told me, “Promise me you’ll never sell it.”

Three weeks later… he never came home. A car accident changed everything.

That hoodie has never been washed with the rest of my clothes. It still hangs exactly where I placed it that night.

People see cotton. I see the last gift my brother ever gave me.

Some garments become priceless long before anyone realizes.
