the story
why we do what we do
The clothing line was created by Jeremiah Freeman and Kalieb Jackson. We are high school entrepreneurs who had a clothing brand idea and have made it happen.
We have created an athletic wear brand that started as T-shirts and has grown to be much more. The original idea for the brand came from a basketball game at the YMCA. Like in all basketball games, there was a lot of smack talk. Kaliub said "Jeremiah, you in some drip". This sparked the idea for what is now a clothing brand sold all over Canton, Ohio and quickly expanding.
Now we here! Drip is an acronym meaning: Determined, Ready, Inspired, Prepared. We are excited about the future of what a positive brand like this can become.
My future goals for drip is to do a lot. first things first I couldn't do any of this without the help of people and most of all the help of God and Him in my corner. God has always come first in my life and none of this could've happened without him.
I am driven to achieve success with this brand and these quotes not only show who I am as a person but can inspire others who may feel like they don't have many opportunities to make something of themselves.
"The day you figure out that it's not all about you in the day that you have succeeded"
"I lived in the ghetto, I got out the ghetto, then I went back to the ghetto, and helped somebody out the ghetto."
I wanted to create a brand to show people not to forget where they came from. Instead, they should take pride in where they came from because most people don't care where you are, they like to see what carved and formed you to get where you are. So don't forget about your story because people like to hear it, and everyone has a story to tell.
Thank you for reading this and we would love for you to support DRIP.
