In this landmark debut digital issue of Guzangs, we ignite a fresh chapter in cultural storytelling. Leading our cover story is American football standout Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, whose on-field prowess is matched by his devotion to his Ghanaian heritage and can be seen evidently seen through his style cycle on instagram– boldly worn kente looks, embroidered dashiki styled with fila cap— it tells us everything we need to know, that beneath his game-day jersey, Jeremiah fuses ancestral craftsmanship with modern athleticism, embodying the conversation between past and present that lies at the heart of our mission at Guzangs.
This cover shoot, titled Helmet of Heritage, was no mere fashion statement. It was an ode to that mission—a visual symphony of culture, spirit, and reflection. And for Jeremiah, it became another chapter in a lifelong dialogue between where he comes from and where he’s going.
“I see the helmet. I see our heritage. A powerful juxtaposition,” he says. “Both are worn, both are weighty, and both are meant to protect. But just as they shield, they can also harm. Neither is about hiding, yet you can’t see the true face of either until it is willingly revealed.”
