Artist Spotlight: Foreign Family
Founded in Los Angeles in the hot summer of 2005, when Chad, decided to start his own clothing brand. Chad needed help with pushing the brand with his vision, and called Mr44. At the time Mr44 was living in SF for about 6 years. Chad called Mr44 to see if he would be willing to come live in LA and push FF together. He made his decision in one day. Chad drove up to SF, picked up Mr44 and drove down to start their journey. They both wanted to build a brand that was known for originality and intricate hand-drawn designs. Hard work and the drive to create good clothing has guided them from the start, from deciding to utilize only original hand drawn artwork, to building an image, fostering their own dedicated following, building an international customer base, freelancing for and collaborating with other brands, and delving into garment production (ie “cut & sew”). 
Foreign Family are proud of recent achievements such as being invited to bread + butter in Barcelona, launching a worldwide art tour, and the opening of their official headquarters - a design studio in Mid-Wilshire, los angeles, which also housed Foreign Family’s 554 pop-up art gallery last year, exhibiting a wide range of artists and some very successful exhibitions, not to mention The Hundreds’ 5 Year Anniversary event. The Fam are also excited about expanding our cut & sew collections thanks to the masterful design and production skills of Johnny Punishment, who brings valuable professional garment design/production experience to the table. Thanks for supporting Foreign Family!
