10 Unique Haitian Treasures That Will Keep Your Pride Alive During the 2026 World Cup and Beyond

The World Cup is around the corner, and to get you in the Haitian spirit in every part of your life, we are introducing you to 10 unique items that carry the culture’s soul.

 

Start by “jete” some Haiti Coffee

As the Haitian saying goes, “M pa ka kay pè pou m mouri san batize,” translating to: “I can’t be living at a priest’s house and die without baptism.” So it makes sense to begin this short goodies guide with our own Haiti coffee, grown in the small village of Dondon in the northern part of Haiti.

Beyond not wanting to die without a baptism, coffee gave birth to one of the most common rituals in Haitian culture: "Jete kafe.” The act of pouring coffee on the ground before taking the first sip is our way of paying tribute to the ones who came before us, ancestors, family members, elders. Also, the Haitian version of making a wish.

Our players will be on the physical field in Boston, Philadelphia, and Atlanta during the World Cup. Some of us will be there in person, but we all can “jete kafe” for them, so our ancestors may carry them on this adventure of lighting the torch of hope in millions of Haitians’ hearts all over the world.

All to say, you gotta grab your Haiti coffee bags now: https://haiticoffee.com/

 

Own a Piece of History with Saeta

Now that you have stocked up on coffee… trust me, you will need it.

I can already envision you looking fabulous in the official World Cup 2026 Haiti jersey. For more than a decade, Saeta has been sponsoring the national soccer team. Now they have the opportunity to showcase the Haitian spirit on the world stage. It’s worth it. Get this piece of history.

Adorned with vèvè/coconut tree patterns and the Vertières monument with the flag on the bottom side, the official jersey comes in red, blue, and white. There’s also a special style for women. As I write this, they are sold out, but keep looking. Worth the wait to own history in the making.

Style in Color with Stella Jean

With the striking combination of her Italian identity and Haitian roots, designer Stella Jean creates clothes that will make you feel like a star. After stunning the world with the Haitian Winter Olympics team uniforms for Milan-Cortina 2026, she’s also releasing a special World Cup edition of hand-stitched jerseys.

As we wait for the collection to become available, if you are looking for vintage, bold styles mixed with modern flair, you better own one of Stella’s collections. Her clothing lines carry stripes, symbols, and elements that used to define Haitian women. There’s nothing like that on the market.

Learn About the Konbit Philosophy with Gwoup Konbit

Throughout history, and deep into the Haitian countryside in the most remote mountains, the Konbit philosophy has been a cornerstone of the most vulnerable communities, often helping them survive and, in many cases, even thrive.

Konbit is a Haitian tradition of collective work and collaboration, where groups come together to help each individual, one turn at a time, accomplish something important. It is especially common in farming communities.

In this guide, you will learn the history and the mechanisms behind the Konbit philosophy. Get your copy:  https://a.co/d/08LjrUZ4
