Founded in 1999, APB is a streetwear clothing brand with a “so cal” flavor based in San Diego, California.

APB has established a brand based on the concept of the unique and often excessive aspects of American culture. From SUV’s, to 24 hour drive-thrus, to pre-approved platinum credit cards, American’s super-sized lifestyle is extraordinary. The brand’s graphics and logos balance current trends and style, as well as portray the core concept. The nature and tone of the APB voice is clever, witty, humorous, and well styled. It encompasses commercialism, politics, pop culture, and topical issues.

The APB concept of satirizing the establishment is not a new one but its unique brand and identity are. It celebrates the American way - our freedom, our individualism, and our quirks. It acknowledges that we, as Americans, like to be our own spokespersons and proudly display our points of view and expressions.

Who are we? We are you! We are the boys and girls that get together and talk about all they are going to accomplish in life. Run this. Own that. The Lia jet, the yacht and the Benz. Flying around the world fucking mad bitches, throwing cash around (excuse me ladies). We have all had these conversations. Well, we figured life was to short to talk shit, so we started this here. Everyone has dreams and aspirations, make it happen.

The aim was and is to create high quality gear that people would comment on when you wear it, it’s that simple. “Where can I get that?” “I need that!” It was also to limit the quantity, and availability, to keep it exclusive. If everyone can have it nobody wants it, you know what I’m saying.

Infamous is the brand for all those that do it their way. It doesn’t matter what walk of life your from, if you’re a skater, a thug, or a stockbroker, if you do it your way and you’re your own person …your Infamous. Of course you also have to be a little naughty to be Infamous. This isn’t be in bed by twelve shit. If we offend you, good, we don’t give a fuck, if you like it, you probably love it, so welcome to the club. We are just trying to keep it real; designing what we think is hot, what we think is Infamous. Maybe you will feel what we are trying to do, and maybe you’ll like
it. Don’t take us serious, we are just having fun. Oh yeah….Buy our shit!

Infamous is a company that aims to fill a void in the market for well-made, sophisticated fashion forward clothing that reflects the extravagance of Australia’s unique urban style.

Infamous is not in the bedroom, the streets, or in the V.I.P. room at the hottest spot, its not in the latest gear you throw on to look slick, or the music you listen to when you kick back or want to dance. It’s all those things. It’s a lifestyle. It’s ‘The Infamous lifestyle’.

Kiser is a clothing brand whose shirts, jackets and hoodies were born in the streets and since have gone far beyond their beginnings. Kiser Haydar Barnes began selling his unique graffiti-inspired apparel while dodging police officers on the streets of downtown New York City. His line has since evolved into a distinct graphic-design/fashion art form that emphasizes the concept of “Hunt Beauty”.

Kiser’s pursuit of truth and originality has lead him to create a series of one-of-a-kind, politically-charged designs. His pursuit can best be described by his image of a flower alongside AK-47 guns. The guns reflect the destructive potential in us that is represented by the flower, in effect a peaceful revolution. His style focuses primarily on the search for this type of beauty in the ever-changing Graphic Life in which we live.

Born in Nigeria, raised in Israel and educated at The Rochester Institute of Technology, Kiser’s art has blossomed into its own visual language. Kiser’s “Hunt Beauty” images are inspired by Hip-Hop, Middle-Eastern and African cultures which he blends together to form a symphony of universally relevant designs.

His fashion is intense complex and deeply intellectual. sometimes it is political, sometimes it is playful but it is always about balance. Kiser’s eclectic style has lead him to collaborate on projects with the likes of Chloe, DJ A-Trak, HBO, The Brooklyn Circus and Timberland among others.

His current apparel line is featured in over 30 stores internationally and online. His shirts, and their designs, have been acclaimed by publications such as URB, Guys, Nylon, Source, GQ, Cargo, and Complex magazines.

Oakland California based fiftyseven-thirtythree, focuses on designs that are simple, graphic, and sexy. Designer James Patrick Dawson has been a commercial photographer for the last 15 years and draws from imagery that is arresting, dissident and playful.

Loretta Nguyen performs the business functions of fiftyseven-thirtythree though promotions, booking and organizing shows. Together, James Dawson works with Loretta Nguyen to produce screen-printed and stenciled shirts and appliquéd hoodies. We draw from an urban aesthetic where multi-culturalism and pop culture merge with inner city decay, graffiti and a lo-tech DIY sensibility.

We look back at our culture to see what has endured and use it as a road map to where we’re going. As a culture, we are mixing elements from around the world to create the future. It’s important, as Americans that we see beyond our current political regression and focus on the fact that the world unfolding around us is incredibly exciting. We strive to reflect and celebrate this to some degree in our designs.

Born on September 26, 2006, ITM Soul Star is a fusion of two minds; Soul Star, aka “Soul Money” and D’Amico. Soul Money, who hails from the streets of New Jersey, is an underground DJ and producer he quickly came to realize the lack of street culture in Nashville. He met D’Amico, a visual artist, in the summer of 2004. They found that their deep interest in the underground music scene and street art was infectious and they began to use photography, film, and paint to escape visual realism and affect the culture and beat of Nashville.

Being much more familiar with the streetwear scene, Soul Money spearheaded the initial push to begin to create street culture driven images and clothing. In an interview with D’Amico, early 2007, when asked where does the imagery come from, he answered “We wanted to create a fusion of hip-hop, rock, and punk and put it on a t-shirt.” With this mindset ITM Soul Star is beginning to change the look and feel of the streets in Nashville.

ITM Soul Star draw most of it’s influence from the counter culture of the 80’s and 90’s, with designs paying tribute to Puerto Rican folk lore to poster style designs of 80’s anime robots. Everything is US made and all printing, designing, and construction happens in the 615. We are located in Nashville, Tennessee.

Concrete Jungle Clothing Company is a New York City-based apparel brand. We are an urban crossover brand that appeals to people from all walks of life as we all come together to form what is the Concrete Jungle. To us, the Concrete Jungle represents New York City, but it can really refer to any urban environment. Like a jungle in the wild, the Concrete Jungle is marked by an intense competition and struggle for survival. In the Concrete Jungle, it’s survival of the fittest.

“Survival of the Fittest” is our mantra, and it has a double meaning in its reference to the great fit, fresh designs, and high quality of our clothing. We hold our garments up to the most exacting and premium standards necessary to thrive in the Concrete Jungle. Our logo is a crown with the NYC skyline embedded into the design. It represents one’s struggle to rise to the top of the Concrete Jungle, and also represents one’s embrace and love of urban life - a melting pot of all types of people. In short, our clothing represents life in our habitat and our mission is to share our story with the rest of the world.

We aim and plan to eventually expand way beyond just Tees and bring you the hottest apparel line-up out there each season. We will continuously be releasing more fresh designs in the coming months, so stay tuned.
