Where Fatherhood Meets Family Legacy

About the Brand

At Kings & Kinfolks, we believe Black fatherhood is powerful, present, and worthy of honor. We exist to shift the narrative — to uplift the beauty, strength, and love found in Black fathers and the families they lead.

Our apparel tells a story — of legacy, pride, and connection. Every design is a tribute to the everyday kings raising their kin with courage, commitment, and care.

Kings & Kinfolks is for the dads who show up, for the grandfathers who paved the way, for the uncles, brothers, and father-figures building generational love and legacy.

We honor Black fathers. We celebrate Black families. We wear it proudly.

When our ambassadors speak, show up, and stand tall, they help the world see what Black fatherhood really looks like.

J. Dontae Roberts, Ph.D.

J. Dontaè Roberts is a proud father from Landover, MD. For him, Black fatherhood is a form of resistance, healing, and narrative reclamation.
