I started this company in my head a long time ago... it was when I first got clean and got the tattoo on my forearm of "Unjustified".
Unjustified was something I used to say to an old friend that I had when I was using. From 14 to just before 18 years old I was doing pretty much any drug I could get my hands on, uppers mostly. Was never a heroin type of person, I always liked to be in action and not bogged down.
From smoking weed, to smoking meth, it was definitely not the place you would think to find someone between the ages of 14 & 18, that's for certain...
I don't regret the things I've done in life, because it all made me the man I am today. I dont view myself as anything other than human, I'm not some gift to the world, or master of anything really... I just take every day given to be as a gift to me, and operate from that belief alone.
While getting clean was no easy feat, I have definitely battled a lot of demons from my past that loved to creep into my present...
With all of that said, that's how I came up with the name Unjustified, from telling my tweaked-out friend that his paranoia was unjustified. That word is tattooed on my right forearm as a reminder to never go back to that type of life.
These days I pour any extra time I have into this clothing company, and while we just started, I have high hopes for the brand. As of right now it's just me, doing everything. However the goal is obviously to grow into a large enough operation where I can have the opportunity to really change some lives and do some good in the world.
So that's a small piece of my story, and I will most definitely be returning here to tell you more of it over time!
I hope you will enjoy my brand and the designs I put out, just know they come from me, and they are an expression of how I feel the world should operate.
