The Original Royals Drawstring Pant honors the rich history and symbolism of the Basotho blankets, specifically referencing the Badges of the Brave Blanket. In WWII, twenty thousand soldiers from Lesotho fought alongside British armed forces, and as a tribute to their valor, they created a blanket incorporating the emblems of each regiment they fought in. The recognition of bravery in others is at the heart of what it means to be an "Original Royal." The emblems from this historic moment are emblazoned on our Original Royals Drawstring Pant, connecting the wearer to a legacy of valor and unity. Each piece in this collection introduces a new story, rich with history, inspired by the traditional blanket designs. A portion of proceeds from this collection will be donated to Sentebale, continuing the ethos of "Kobo ke bophelo" [Trans. The blanket is life].
