Brand Values

• •Self-Expression and Individuality
• •Authenticity (Street Authenticity)
• •Boldness and Fearlessness
• •Community/Movement
• •Style and Trend-Consciousness

Best Practices

• •Develop a Core Messaging Doc: Create a document outlining key brand phrases, approved slang/terminology (and what to avoid), and the feelings you want to evoke. Refer to the brand's self-description: "bold, essential apparel for those who create without permission and express without fear."
• •Know Your Audience Intimately: Understand their language, their aspirations, and what resonates with them (e.g., current slang, cultural references relevant to streetwear and potentially their geographic focus).
• •Prioritize Visual-Copy Cohesion: Ensure the tone of the copy always matches the edgy, urban aesthetic of the visuals.
• •Be Confident and Direct: Use strong verbs and declarative sentences. Avoid overly passive or hesitant language. Reflect the "express without fear" ethos.
• •Stay Current but Authentic: While embracing trends (like on TikTok), ensure the language still feels true to the "born from the streets" core identity and doesn't just chase fleeting memes. Authenticity is key in streetwear.

Social Perception

The brand projects an image of being current, fashionable, and aligned with street culture, resonating with a younger demographic interested in streetwear, urban fashion, and expressing a bold, individualistic style.
