These clothes will make you look cool -- without contributing to cultural appropriation .

OxDx Clothing , by Navajo designer Jared Yazzie, mixes Native patterns with graffiti and punk-inspired designs to create shirts that call out issues that affect Native communities, like cultural misrepresentation and violence against women.

I never thought about creating a statement, I just made stuff that reflects Native people, Yazzie told The Huffington Post. If it comes off as rebellious and angry, thats just Native life -- because there are a lot of problems on the reservation.
