Birdwell partnered with Australian artist, musician, and surfer Kai Brown on a limited series of 30 customized field jackets to raise funds for the Australian bushfires relief efforts.
Cut and sewn in California from durable ripstop cotton poplin, the amR x Bridwell Aloha Field Jacket features solid redwood buttons, a removable Velcro ALOHA patch on the left chest, amR chain-stitched branding on the right back hem, and a woven Bridwell label on back left hem. The back of each jacket is chain stitched by Brown himself with ALOHA in yellow above a red hibiscus flower. All of the proceeds from the sale of the jacket will be donated to Australian state fire services fighting on the front lines.

Inspired by a customized jacket made by his grandmother, Kai Brown launched custom denim brand All My Relations (amR) in 2015. Brown came up with the name after a Native American smudge down ceremony where he heard the words Mitakuye Oyasin which translates to we are related. The name reflects Kai Brown’s world view of interconnection. Kai’s love of the Australian beach lifestyle, motorcycle culture, surfing, and vintage denim inform his personal style and his hand stitched creations. Shop amR now at allmyrelationsco.com.
