Inspire Change is the NFL's social justice initiative that focuses on reducing barriers to opportunity, specifically in communities of color and working together to create positive change.

This season for Inspire Change, the Seahawks collaborated with local artist Damon Brown to design a hoodie that symbolizes strength, unity, and a shared commitment to equality and justice.

Brown's design also serves as a call to action for equity and collective progression.

"[The art] reflects themes of leadership, solidarity, and determination, inviting viewers to reflect on the ongoing fight for social justice and empowerment," Brown said. "The artwork also serves as a call to action, encouraging others to join this shared vision of equity and collective progress."

From an early age, Brown knew that he loved art and creating designs. He drew inspiration from comic books.

"I spent countless hours exploring different images and heroic storylines which opened my eyes to artistic creation," Brown said. "As my imagination grew, I began to study various art movements, illustration styles, and urban art. This, in turn, taught to me how things like color, shape, story, and texture can manifest into something so vivid for people to feel and see. I was then able to blend my love for classical art and illustration."

The hoodies can be found exclusively at the Pro Shop. One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to Coyote Central, an organization that Brown chose.

"Choosing Coyote Central means supporting an organization dedicated to igniting creativity in youth and fostering inclusivity. As a kid, I wish I had access to this. Coyote Central's commitment to breaking down barriers resonates with me, especially for communities historically marginalized by systemic inequities. Prioritizing diverse voices and collaboration creates a space where young people can build skills, express themselves, and be part of a future shaped by creativity, equity, and opportunity."

Brown added, "Art has always been my way of understanding and processing the world—a natural language I've spoken since I was young. It's more than creating visuals; it's about sharing stories, exploring emotions, and capturing moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. Following this path is about connecting with others, driven by an endless curiosity to explore. It's a journey of creativity, expression, and the opportunity to leave a lasting impact through each piece."

Also, as a part of Inspire Change, there is an NFL Inspire Change Collection that includes a tee shirt, beanie and caps. Twelve percent of the in-store proceeds will be donated to UNCF Seattle, an organization that provides local minority students with the funds they need to support their college education.
