Who We Are

 Krates 'N Records was born in 2017, out of a deep love for music and street culture, by DJs KrazeWayne & Romulus III in Hartford, CT. Our journey began with iconic designs like the Capitol West tee, a tribute to Hartford’s West End, and the powerful image of the Liberty Tee, a design of the Statue of Liberty holding the KNR vinyl, and technics 1200 turntable symbolizing the heart and soul of DJing, rooted in New York.

We’ve faced our share of challenges, like any brand on the come-up, but it’s the unwavering belief in our mission that’s kept us alive. We’re not just selling tees—we’re sharing a piece of culture. Now based in Boston, Massachusetts, we’re proud to offer some of the best blank tees on the market, known for their quality and authenticity.

Along the way, we’ve collaborated with DJs and graffiti artists, all in the name of celebrating the street style and culture that raised us. Every design, every collab, is a testament to the streets, to music, and to the creativity that drives us forward.
