Nas is bringing some style to the holidays by releasing a Santa sweater line through his HSTRY clothing brand. The crewnecks come in red, green and black and depict Santa Claus kneeling as a homage to Colin Kaepernick’s protest. 

But to make sure the sales benefit everyone, the proceeds from the sweaters will reportedly go to a non-profit organization called the Center for Court Innovation, which “seeks to help create a more effective and humane justice system,” according to the organization’s website.

“Colin Kaepernick recently took this powerful stance, and like him, we love America – but also cannot ignore the injustices we have been seeing and how important our fight is against them,” Nas said in a statement to the Huffington Post.

The “Kneeling Santa” sweaters are currently listed at $45 and there’s still time to grab one before the holiday season kicks off.
