0 F.A.D.E.D. Spotlight: Jaxleigh Clothing



In an attempt to draw inspiration from current events and those who care about them, Jaxleigh conveys these discussions through their clothing line. The brand maintains a classic and simple style throughout the line with graphics revolving around original artist series works and photography oriented depictions. This clothing line translates debate topics with their shirts and they display strong messages regarding today’s controversial issues.


Jaxleigh Inc. began as a grassroots initiative by Greg Schwartzenberger when he was a freshman at a small Southern Baptist college in Buies Creek, North Carolina. Although controversial in meaning, Jaxleigh bespeaks a likeable lifestyle vibe through its colors, original artwork, and photography oriented depictions. Each piece of clothing is hand printed in Schwartzenberger’s studio which dubs as his garage in Atlantic Beach, Florida. Jaxleigh is available at select retailers and via the online store.

Examples of today’s issues that Jaxleigh portray through their clothing include Cap and Trade, the General Motors Bankruptcy, and Wall St. vs Main St. They pride themselves on healthy debate, and when satisfied, convey their products to the marketplace.

0 F.A.D.E.D. Spotlight: Riddim Driven Clothing

If you’ve been following F.A.D.E.D. since we’ve started (like y’all should’ve been), then you are familiar with our views on upcoming clothing lines and their original intent. I mean, it’s easy to design clothes and sell for a quick little profit, but not many people are ethic with it. What I mean is that the true and successful clothing lines come with a standard and a belief behind their creations.
That is basically is what F.A.D.E.D. is about, when it comes to lifestyle. We don’t require the frame of mind that says you gotta have this and that to be labeled as ‘fresh’, or F.A.D.E.D. Y’all knew that though…
This week we decided to spotlight the Riddim Driven clothing line based off of the island and reggae culture.
What makes this line appealing is the fact that their clothes reflect their Ska lifestyle without being biased towards the primary colors of their culture (green, red, gold) and they create a comfortable feel with the basic, yet inspiring styles.
Like any other line, they’re wardrobe consists of jeans, hoodies, tees, long sleeves, and even hats. For the upcoming fall season, RD promised to focus on two genres of clothing that reflected the heritage of the island. One is the progressive street-wear look that reflects the Ska sounds and culture. The other is a style that showcases the culture of the rebellious youth. For this specific look, they are found more in the jackets and long sleeved looks.
Take a peep at their closet, and let us know what you like about it.

0 F.A.D.E.D. Spotlight: WeAretheSuperlativeConspiracy

Whats good cyberspace?

Instead of drowning you guys with new music videos and mixtapes like we've been doing all week, we decided to bring you something different tonite.

I recently ran across a team of activists who call themselves WeSC, which stands for WeAretheSuperlativeConspiracy. I was looking at their collection of clothes and I was feeling what they were dropping on me. But their business has a whole different aspect to it than what people generally see.

They were a group of skateboarders and snowboarders who originally started up WeSC in January of 2009. They consider themselves a company within the skateboarding industry, clothing with roots in a subculture that sets its own rules and follows its own trends.

Theie idea was to create a street fashion brand, a brand that represented street fashion – not streetwear. According to their website, they felt that the purpose contained more than just t-shirts and jeans, a broader selection for men and women. None of what they wanted to achieve was to be found in the distribution network that they related to.

Today WeSC is available in more than 20 countries around the world. WeSC is addressing people with awareness, regardless of race, religion or financial background.

As deep as their philosophy is and the great magnitude of their work, they still are doing the business thing with the clothing line that they run. Here's a look at some of their styles...
