COOL was started by Ian Shaw, CEO of the company and Nuwo Johnson. The brand name came about because the two felt there was a void that needed to be filled for the creative people. The creators felt like there was a misrepresentation & interpretation of the meaning of the word cool. People were playing the part, but not necessarily were they cool individuals. The two recognizing that cool people are typically the ones that create the style and trends they decided to represent this through their clothing line. Ian came up with the name COOL.COOL is an acronym which stands for "Creative Outlook On Life". COOL is a clothing company which purpose is to re-define the essence of cool through creativity, intellect, and style. As a fashion brand they are re-defining the word cool to mean something more than just looking the part, but to mean one is creative and unique while carrying themselves with class, and intellect.

Black Heartz is currently located in Baltimore, MD and was founded by a young Entreprenuer by the name of Phil Frazier. He started this brand in the spring of '09. It all started with a simple idea – design fresh high-quality unique items. Phil found himself brainstorming about launching his own brand centered around his love for graphics and minimal design. Phil didn't really know much about business let alone starting a clothing brand. What really drove him to pursue this dream was that in his generation there was a wide case of un-originality in his words. He felt the need to fill that void with something people could relate to and yet distance themselves from the un-orignal trends.

Based out of Rancho Belago, California. WAO (Wazaa Ardhi Original) founder and CEO Dwain Young started his company with one thought in mind, to build an apparel line that spoke the truth about our history. That love of history and his passion to share history is what fuels WAO today. He attended local festivals and street fair's with his Throwback T-shirt line Watts 1965 and LA 1992. The word soon spread and calls were coming from around the country. He knew then, that if he was going to tell the whole story, he would have to tell the story from the beginning and that is Africa. Teaming up with his designer Brian Thomas,they created Urban Knowledge Street Wear, The Resistance line was design to, spark dialogue and spread cultural consciousness. Our clothing lines are walking history lessons,paying tribute to events that shaped the future and make us who we are today. The Resistance line is about the shared history that many of us have limited knowledge of or have forgotten. Urban Knowledge Street Wear is not just a clothing line, it is a movement. What's inspiring is our customers response to the line, that feeling of pride and respect they have while wearing our clothing. This is what keeps the passion going.

Owner/ Designer Kep Niles, have been perfecting his vision for 10 years; it wasn’t until August of 2009 he decided to take it off the back burner and fully pursue his Brand. His passion has always been art. Kep feels that we are all artist in some way or another by the way we dress, to the way we buy that certain vehicle and then dress it up with all sorts of accessories such as rims, paint jobs, etc. While in Jr. High, Clothing & Music became a big part of who he was as a teenager and who he was in school, believing he had a very good eye for what brand was hot at the time and what looked good. “I really enjoyed when I would spend a good amount of money on my gear and get all sorts of compliments. I even had people that wanted to buy my clothes off my back. I thought to myself if it’s this easy to make something look good. I want my own brand to where I get paid every time someone likes it enough to purchases my product.”
Intrigued by the power of brands, Kep decided he wanted his own brand, something that he could start from scratch and watch grow into an empire all while enjoying his successes throughout his life-time.
Our focus at Kep Niles is to make sure that Whom ever is wearing a garment by Kep Niles that which they feel they are these three words… FRESH CLASSIC CLEAN.

TaeRyan Clothing is an emerging, ambitious brand bringing together the attitudes and styles of the cultures that have influenced us. My business partner and I, growing up in 2 different cities, Chicago and New York, felt like we could combine our influences to create a bold and unique look. TaeRyan was founded in 2007 and we released our first designs in mid-2008. I can't say it has been easy, we have spent many sleepless nights trying to perfect designs and even had to take a step back for a while to re-evaluate our mistakes before getting back on track and re-launching the line. After all the hard work, and thanks to our fans, we can finally say this is what we wanted TaeRyan to be: A bold and affordable line with no boundaries and a bright future.
