Stussy Clothing

In 1980, California local Shawn Stüssy began creating surfboards that combined specific performance shapes with a unique graphic hand style combining elements from reggae, punk and new wave music. Soon later he branched out into clothing, in the brand’s early days, Shawn travelled to key cities such as London, Paris and Tokyo, where he discovered organically people who shared the same tastes in music, fashion, and culture. In 1991, Shawn Stüssy and James Jebbia opened Stüssy’s first flagship store in New York. The store became a key kingpin of the first wave of retailers that paved the way in the evolving but still-gritty, up-and-coming Soho neighborhood. Today, Stüssy still holds it's own as the Godfather of streetwear, delivering an expansive collection of clothing such as jackets, sweatshirts, t-shirts and pants each season.
