In a move that has sent shockwaves through the political sphere, the renowned streetwear brand Awake NY has unveiled a captivating new t-shirt honoring former First Lady Michelle Obama in the wake of President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race.
The limited-edition tee, available in both black and white colorways, features a striking portrait of Obama during her graduation from Princeton University, where she graduated cum laude with a degree in sociology and a minor in African-American studies. Emblazoned across the front are the empowering words she first uttered at the 2016 Democratic National Convention: “When they go low, we go high.”
On the back of the shirt, the text “OBAMA AWAKE ’24” is printed in a bold, patriotic color scheme, along with the Awake NY logo – a subtle nod to the brand’s apparent endorsement of a potential Obama 2024 presidential bid.

The announcement of the new Michelle Obama tribute tee has sent shockwaves through the political and fashion communities alike, with many speculating that the release could be a precursor to a potential Obama presidential campaign. Regardless of what the future holds, one thing is clear: Awake NY has once again proven its ability to capture the zeitgeist with impeccable style and grace.
