OBEY clothing stands proudly today as a true stalwart of the streetwear scene. Since 1989 OBEY has pioneered streetwear ethos through art, design, brand ideals and ultimately its clothing line. While studying at RISD, OBEY founder Shepherd Fairey designed a sticker using Andre the Giant's likeness, with the moniker 'Andre the Giant has a posse' - the rest, as they say, was history.
This street art campaign evolved into the OBEY Giant as we know it today. A sleek, stylised version of the original sticker graphic, the OBEY Giant with its recognisable white on red font has been postered up across the world as helped to put the clothing arm of OBEY on the map. For over 21 years, OBEY clothing has held one of the top spots in the world of streetwear. Coming up alongside notable names including The Hundreds, HUF and Benny Gold, this melting pot of activism fuelled streetwear brands gave birth to a movement, that has gone on to influence the world over, from high fashion to art, food, music and everything in between.
From its humble beginnings as a graphic brand, OBEY have gone on to produce cut and sew items each season, evolving the brand while still injecting enough of the original OBEY DNA to set them apart from the rest.
Each season OBEY t shirts come in a variety of options, from straight up graphic tee offerings, to cut and sew pigment dyed options.
Completing looks, OBEY trousers take on the form of the Easy Cord Pant, a relaxed fit cotton corduroy option, channelling early 00s skater vibes in a number of colours.
Accessories make up a good part of each OBEY collection, with OBEY beanies and caps coming in their own custom fit, materials and finish.
OBEY hoodies take on a premium cotton/poly blend and feature core graphics every season. Sometimes finished with embroidered logos, or screen printed artwork, OBEY hoodies are the perfect option to complete any contemporary look.
The OBEY brand is a strong today as it has always been, keeping their focus on supplying OBEY fans with the type of product they've always loved from the brand. Shop the latest from OBEY online now at The Chimp Store.
