Kallusive

Protector of the Code Tee

Show your style with this Kallusive tee

Kallusive clothing was created by Alex Cotraviwat and Micheal Sam. Created in Los Angeles, this brand derives its inspiration through the artistic culture of the region. The bold colors and provocative designs that are produced by the brand are the factors that have contributed to the enormous success of the clothing line.

The Kallusive brand got started when two friends decided to design a clothing line that would inspire people through the artwork displayed on the pieces. The word “Kallusive” was chosen for the line because it literally means “to inspire”.  In 2006 the pair started the company with a few designs and the tag lines, “To Spark Innovation” and “Leave Your Mark”. Since that time, the creators have worked hard to maintain the creativity on which the brand was founded.

Every piece that is produced by the line of clothing is one hundred percent original. The creators work together to design every graphic that they print on their clothing. The graphics on the clothing must be approved by both owners before they can be placed on a tee and sold to the public. They strive to create clothing that is not only on the cutting edge of fashion, but sends a message. The messages that are embedded into the artwork of the clothing are not always obvious. The owners aim is to create subtle themes within the clothing that are based on cultural and political events.

Kallusive's innovative designs definitely make them a cut above the rest.

The artistic value of the clothing produced by this company is only one factor to their success. The company often participates in local events to help generate buzz for the clothing line. These events play host to celebrities such as DJ AM and Wil.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas who also help to promote the brand. The clothing line also sponsored a group of dancers that performed on the television show “America’s Best Dance Crew”. The group was featured on the first season of the show and was decked out in Kallusive brand clothing.

Kallusive makes clothing for men that value artistry and individualism. The clothing line has also started to create accessories such as cell phone skins. The products that are produced by the company can be purchased through the Kallusive website. The website also features the latest designs of the season and news about the company.
