Brand Tone

Empowering, Authentic, Grounded, Rebellious (in a "challenging the status quo" sense), Relatable, Confident.

Brand Values

• •Accessibility: Providing high-quality, modern clothing to those who feel overlooked by mainstream fashion.
• •Authenticity: Staying true to their roots and encouraging customers to be themselves.
• •Community: Building a brand that resonates with and supports the "working class, the small towners, the everyday person."
• •Challenging Norms: Questioning the idea that self-worth is tied to expensive apparel or logos.
• •Quality & Value: Offering "luxury brand" quality at "discount brand" prices, though they define themselves as "neither."
• •Purpose-Driven: "Working on something bigger" than just selling clothes, aiming to fill a void and elevate the customer experience.

Best Practices

• •Speak to Your Core Audience Directly: Always frame your copy addressing the "working class, small towners, the everyday person." Use "you" and "your" to make it personal and relatable.
• •Embrace the "Outlaw" Spirit (Subtly): Weave in themes of independence, challenging norms, and authenticity without being overtly aggressive. The "every game needs an outlaw" ethos is about quiet confidence and self-reliance.
• •Highlight Value Beyond Price: While affordability is a factor, focus on the combination of quality, modern design, and the feeling of being understood by the brand. It’s not just cheap; it’s *smart*.
• •Maintain Authenticity in Voice: Avoid overly corporate jargon or influencer-speak that feels inauthentic to the brand's grounded values. Keep the language straightforward, confident, and honest.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell, Community: Use user-generated content (with permission) and customer stories in your marketing to reinforce the "built for you" and community aspects of the brand. Let the voices of your customers reflect the brand's values.

Social Perception

The brand aims to be perceived as a go-to for stylish, high-quality activewear that doesn't break the bank and understands the values of "everyday people" and those in "flyover states." They want to be seen as a brand that "gets" them.
