The new Noah collection stays true to the [utilitarian menswear brand's simplistic aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-doesnt-matter), however a few of the graphics on its tees take it a little deeper.

Offered in a variety of different colors that range from black and white to a powerful red, the images included on the t-shirts show a [scene of war](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/test-product-exchange-service), along with the words "Why Can't We Be Friends?" written beneath. These images vary a bit as well, as does the colorway of the typography that carries the message.

In addition to this, the new Noah collection, which was made for the Fall/Winter 2016 season, includes a selection of [hoodies, hats, crewneck sweaters and jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-winter-2025-tees). While the Noah name can be found on the pieces, it appears minimally on most.
