For Every Story
Just because the world doesn't know your name doesn't mean your story isn't worth something. You are what you make of yourself. For the things unseen and the stories untold. For those who strive to be great, not for attention, but because it's who they are.
For the culture. For the community. For every story.
Origin: Story of E
A dream since 2018, maybe even before. Ever since I was a little kid, I've always loved creating. Being able to bring an idea to life is one of the greatest thing about art. The entrepreneur mindset was instilled in me at a young age. I would sell toys and try to clean my friends shoes for extra money. By middle school I was already working with my dad: home renos, lawn care, you know the usual story. I'm thankful for the experience, as it helped me grow and never be afraid of putting in the work. In 2019 I picked up clippers for the first time and I really didn't know what I was doing. I just wanted another hustle, it wasn't anything serious. It took a while but I got the hang of it and I'd like to say I became pretty good. I began to appreciate not just creating the haircut, but the process; learning what it takes to produce quality. I loved it, but I was hooked when I saw how it made people feel. Making others feel good was greater than anything I've ever created. From this I learned that everything in life is a canvas, painted by how we work, love, and express ourselves. Since then, I've been obsessed with creating an experience beyond what meets the eye. That is what Speakeazy was made for. Officially launching in 2025, we start off with our collection, "SZN 3: paperwork and purpose." The first official collection sold by Speakeazy. After years of building a vision, this collection represents the foundation of what Speakeazy will be. Building the brand from the ground up, I am grateful for the experience to learn and go through the process of creating something real. Thankful to the community and everyone who has helped me and continued to support the vision. None of this would be possible without you and without God. From what we produce, I hope to give you an experience: to be inspired and to inspire, to be confident, to be great. To show anything is possible when you are willing to put in the work and are strengthened by faith.
Ever drop is intentional. Designed to speak for itself. We set the standard.
Behind the Name
Inspired by speakeasies (secret bars in 1920-1933). Speakeazy was first created in 2020 unofficially representing the secret of what it was. If you knew, you knew. Representing that just because others don't know, doesn't mean you don't exist. To bring appreciation the things we don't see.
