Reed, Cross Colours aimed to promote positive messages of unity and cultural awareness through fashion. The clothing line was known for its bright and bold designs, featuring African-inspired prints and patterns. The company was a pioneer in the urban fashion movement and helped to bring attention to streetwear as a legitimate fashion genre. Cross Colours clothing was worn by some of the biggest names in entertainment, including Tupac, Ice-T, and Queen Latifah, helping to solidify the brand's place in the new wave of Hip-Hop fashion of the 1990s.
