Naive Clothing was formed in 2004 as an outlet for Joshua Martin and his friends to create something that they felt was needed in the fashion industry. After toying around for a couple of years and spending time on and off some tours Naive Clothing realized in the spring of 2006 that they needed to make their clothing about something greater.

In the spring of 2006 the idea of “our profit for their profit” was born into the brain of the company and reflected the entire staffs hearts. This idea is simple: “We sell shirts and give some of that money away. We aren’t anything greater than that.” Naive Clothing is a for profit company, but they are trying to give some of that away because the needs of the many are great.

In the Fall of 2006 Naive Clothing released their latest line with a Southern Direction to focus on their heritage and lead them towards a new design direction. The new shirts are all printed on American Apparel and each one tells a story. As with all Naive Clothing shirts the shirt is just half the product because the story and the images behind it are what make their shirts unique.

Heading into 2007 Naive Clothing is in the process of trying to expand their message through word of mouth advertising and truly start to open peoples eyes. With the slogan “Push the Heart” They are taking the web by storm.

BEAN DIP CLOTHING is a product of long days, and longer nights. Influenced by all aspects of life, people, and music, our philosophy is if anyone works hard and believes in what they are doing, success will soon follow.

“Mediocrity is self-inflicted, genius is self-bestowed.”

James Russell and Bill Smeltzer are Co-Owners of BEAN DIP Clothing, who design and hand screen print the main line. In addition, the Artist Connection allows up and coming artists to relay their work onto a different medium. The Artist Connection Family consists of Matt Collins, Danny Jones, Daryl Waller, and Jason Woodside.

Bean Dip started as a side project hand screen-printing limited run t-shirts and slapping stickers around town. We wanted to make clothing that focused more on the design aspect, not a name, the name was to be irrelevant or even misleading. Design of the tees have two aspects, one from a close view showing detail, and another for the overall look from afar.

Before we started Bean Dip, both of us were attending college; James working on graphic and web site design, and Bill learning the ropes of business and marketing. After graduating, the path laid out before us wasn\’t attractive, so we decided to pave our own road. Coincidentally, our backgrounds complemented each other and Bean Dip was born in early 2006.

Their boutique is featured on many popular sneaker and fashion culture websites such as www.hypebeast.com, www.kick-fiend.com, and was profiled in detail on www.kixinthecity.com . Although they have become popular on the frontier of the sneaker culture, they view their clothing line as the future of the business and they plan to continue to develop as a true lifestyle brand through their unique fashion outlook and style.

Not the prettiest site online but functional, with prices in Canadian dollars.

Since 1989, the Obey street art campaign has become an important urban phenomenon, subconsciously touching those well aware of their environment.

Through the vision of Shepard Fairey, Obey has evolved into one of the most controversial yet influential symbols of the 21st century. Derived from a pop-culture athlete in the eighties, the Obey icon has been bombed in developed and rural cities around the world. Its ambiguous idea immediately sparks philosophical discussion and ultimately motivates the inner-person through active participation.

With the help of Mike Ternosky and Erin Wignall, Obey Clothing continues to spread Shepard’s message through sportswear fashion and one-of-a-kind accessories. Each piece designed is cleverly thought out, attracting all genres and ages, reminding them of the days when “style” was a one syllable word. Obey Tees, sweats, vintage track jackets, belts, wallets and military inspired jackets and caps are examples of what we are known for.
