The Californian brand Independent was founded in 1978 in the city of Santa Cruz, California. Primarily, this brand focused more on producing things needed for skateboarding itself, such as trucks. After all, these are very crucial for them because they manufacture them better than anyone else in the world. But one day they decided that since they succeed in making skate equipment, they could also make skate apparel. And thus, they started with clothing.

That was a bullseye. The unique Independent collections celebrate the same success as their trucks. In their portfolio, you will also find collaborations with various top brands around the world. Among their greatest achievements are collaborations with Supreme, Herschel Supply Co., or Brixton.

Interesting fact: Many people confuse the Independent logo with the Iron Cross. However, it is a round cross that was first seen in 1979 on the clothing of Pope John Paul II., who had the cross on his clothes when he was photographed for the cover of a magazine. The founders of Independent saw this and at that moment it was clear. The logo of independence as the logo of Independent.
