Brain Dead : Clothing for a Curious Life

The highly original collaborations, quintessential graphics, and sprawling network of underground artists that make up the Los Angeles - based cult streetwear brand. Founded in Los Angeles in 2014 by Kyle Ng and Ed Davis, Brain Dead is a collective of artists and designers from around the world. Employing a disruptive, graphic-led approach, the brand takes its cues from post-punk, underground comics, skateboarding, horror films, and the spirit of subculture as a whole to produce an unmistakably bold, nonconformist vision that is distinctly their own. Their erratic designs and prints have quickly garnered the label a cultlike following that stretches from Los Angeles to New York, Paris, Milan, Tokyo, and beyond. The brand has done many highly visible collaborations with names like Magic: The Gathering, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Marvel, and NTS Radio; brands including Reebok, Converse, A.P.C., the North Face, Asics, Dickies, Kiko Kostadinov, and Slam Jam.
