24: So how has the Asylum
Clothing line been doing since we last featured your line?
Asylum: Everything has been
going pretty smooth so far. We've gotten a lot of great feedback from
fans from all over the nation as well as the world so we're feeling pretty good
about it. People from the other side of the world are diggin' our designs
and it's a really unbelievable feeling.
24: What inspired you to
begin a clothing line and why did you choose the name Asylum Clothing?
Asylum: The route that
fashion has been going and the lack of creativity in the styles of clothes
really inspired us to collect our ideas and try to change the fashion
world. We mixed our styles into one to create something new, something
different that would appeal to everyone.
24: Who are the
owners/creators of Asylum Clothing?
Asylum: Chad Cygan, Cody
Oelker and Ken Nixon of Artistry Apparel.
24: What are the other
branches of Asylum Clothing Brand?
Asylum: Artistry Apparel,
Guerrilla Tactics and then, of course, our ladies lines.
24: Who creates the designs
for the shirts?
Asylum: We all put our own
creative spin on each design as we each have a different style we like.
Chad and Cody design for Asylum and Guerrilla Tactics and collaborate with Kenny
to design the Artistry Apparel line. We have a lot of really great shirt
designs that are still being "tweaked" that will be coming soon also.
24: Are you sticking with
shirts only or will you expand?
Asylum: We plan on expanding
to every aspect of the fashion industry starting with swimwear like bikinis and
board shorts then to denims and jeans, hoodies, hats, sunglasses... you name
it. That's our goal. We're also supporting the music industry and
local artists by designing custom shirts so if anybody needs custom work done
by a professional design company then contact us at asylumclothing941@gmail.com and we'll work
with you for a reasonable price.
24: How do you feel that
Asylum Clothing stands out and is different from all the other clothing lines
that are out now?
Asylum: We bring a new style
of design to the game that separates us from the "cut and paste"
world of fashion. Asylum brings a new creativity that the fashion world,
in our opinion, currently lacks. We mix urban fashion with a rockstar
style but we also bring in a vibe that appeals to skateboarders as well as
musicians, artists and everyday people like us.
24: Where can people buy your
product?
Asylum: At our online store
at www.Asylum-Clothing.com and currently
at Willow 506 Boutique in Sarasota, FL.
We're also working on many other popular local stores and possibly our own
storefront.
24: Anything else you want
to promote?
Asylum: We would like to
help raise support for all Florida artists and bring the bottom of the map to
the top. The world runs on people like us and we would like to show that
if you put your mind to it you can make your dreams come true. Never give up,
don't talk about it, be about it. We started this company with no money
and an idea and thanks to all the support and friends along the way, we've made
it this far. Join the movement!
