Obey Clothing - more than apparel
Obey has roots in DIY, punk and skateboard culture, but also draws from various influences from other subcultures and pop cultural trends. Political messages, which usually turn against the establishment, are always a theme. That's why Obey Clothing is fundamental to skate parks worldwide.
From the "André The Giant" sticker to Obey Clothing
The original sticker provided the basis for the famous Obey logo. It shows André the Giant, a French wrestler and actor. The stickers were pasted on skate spots, road signs and in clubs. Initially, Shepard Fairey only wanted to impress his colleagues from the skateboard scene and the art school.
Today, the logo, which has been reduced to just the eyes, is Obey's trademark and can often be found on the hoodies and t-shirts of the brand. But Obey's clothing range is also characterized by contemporary fits, loose-fit jeans, relaxed shirts and eye-catching sweatshirts. The designs are always paired with a portion of social criticism.
Shepard Fairey - The mastermind behind Obey
Shepard Fairey attributes the motivation for his ascent in the street art scene to an experience from his school days. He was punished for his classmate's misbehavior. It was then that he developed a distrust of authority and strict hierarchies.
In the years that followed, Frank Shepard Fairey became one of the most respected artists in street art and graphics. His work included the HOPE logo for Barack Obama in the US election campaign and he even made it into an episode of the TV series The Simpsons.
