YEMA Classic Track Jacket in Addis Black | 17th Century Abyssinian Angels Full Zip
A track jacket for anyone who's earned the right to move like royalty. The YEMA Classic in Addis Black brings 17th century Abyssinian heritage to modern athletic luxury—ancient angel motifs symbolizing love, peace, victory, and prosperity meet the iconic giraffe logo in a full-zip jacket that commands attention wherever you go.
This isn't the jacket powerful emperors would have worn—it's the jacket their descendants created after learning that true power isn't inherited, it's claimed. The Abyssinian angels represent the spiritual protection and blessings that accompany those who walk their own path. Combined with YEMA's giraffe (with its 25-pound heart), this jacket becomes a statement: I lead with love, I move with purpose, I claim my space.

The Story Behind the Stitch
Abyssinia—the ancient name for Ethiopia—represents a land that was never colonized, a culture that held its ground when empires tried to claim it. The 17th century Abyssinian angels on this jacket aren't just beautiful—they're symbols of a heritage that chose its own path and protected its sovereignty. Love, peace, victory, prosperity—these weren't gifts from conquerors, they were qualities claimed and defended.
Fast forward to today: YEMA carries that same spirit of self-determination. This classic track jacket honors the past while creating futures. The giraffe logo—representing the largest heart in the animal kingdom at 25 pounds—adds the brand's signature philosophy: lead with love, see beyond obstacles, move with intention.
Every YEMA piece carries heritage forward while making room for whoever's brave enough to reach for it. This isn't a track jacket for the select few—it's for dreamers, doers, athletes, and everyone in between who move through the world with the confidence of those who know they've earned their place.
