2017 PRESS KIT

In 2012, I was nearly out of options. I had moved across the country to
Los Angeles and then lost my savings on a failed start-up business. I had
a little room left on a couple of credit cards, a love for fashion and the
skills to design product so I risked it all and started Popular Demand.
I wanted to create something that couldnt be ignored. The brands
aesthetic and mentality had to be one and the same: bold, loud, and
unapologetic.

Popular Demand debuted with four t-shirt designs and zero fanfare. The
early reception to the brand and my all gas, no brakes mindset helped
change that quickly. In no time, we catapulted from those four t-shirts to
a full collection of headwear, tops, bottoms and accessories being carried
by hundreds of stores worldwide and worn by many of the cultures most
influential icons.

The Popular Demand team now consists of young, hungry individuals that
share my mentality and amplify my vision. We continue to create product
and live a lifestyle that is true to Popular Demand's roots bold, loud
and unapologetic.

WE VE BEE N
EVERYWHERE
We have a tendency to take over everything we touch. From the small screen
to the big screen, Instagram, Musical.ly, YouTube, music videos, ESPY Awards,
Grammys, magazine covers you name it weve been everywhere.
WE LIVE BY
OUR MOTTO
N O A P O L O G I E S
Our mentality is to do what we feel is authentic to ourselves and our
lifestyle. Our brand was built in Los Angeles, California. Our city
inspires us. Its given us the opportunity to live a lifestyle with no
boundaries. One night, youll catch us at one of Hollywoods biggest
nightclubs standing on VIP tables. The next night, well be smoking
hookah at a lounge chilling with your favorite hip hop star. No name
dropping needed everyone knows we keep a select circle.

If you check into our headquarters, you may run into your dream girl
doing a photoshoot, our team messing around with an unreleased tech
gadget or a world champion athlete playing Mortal Kombat against one
of our brand ambassadors. The work hard, play hard life couldnt be
more real around here. Were always on 100. Were not sorry for living
the way we do we thrive on it. Our product reflects who we are, our
experiences and our mentality.

We never said that Popular Demand was for the timid,


its for those who offer no apologies.
WE WORK WITH
THE BEST
Real recognizes real. In a very short period of time, weve had the honor
of working on collaborations and special projects with some of the
most forward-thinking companies in the world.
WERE WORN BY
EVERYBODY
Look to the right. It doesnt take much to see that many of the worlds favorite
music artists, models and athletes wear Popular Demand. What each of these
trendsetters wear is an extension of their personal brand. Were proud of the
fact that each of them, and many others, rock with us.
