Dirtbag Clothing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dirtbag Clothing is a San Francisco-based apparel company founded by partners Douglas Canning and John Alves during their final year as film majors at San Francisco State University[1] in 1996.[2] Instead of starting with a catalog like most apparel companies, Canning began with a website.[1] From there, he went to the websites of independent record labels to get email addresses for bands that would fit his demographic and offered a 40% discount on those willing to wear their merchandise.[1]
Dirtbag manufactures various styles of apparel: streetwear, punk clothing, urban clothing, hoodies, flexfits, women's tees, baby dolls, and accessories,
Dirtbag sponsors include Slipknot, Fear Factory, Jerry Cantrell, Drowning Pool, Shadows Fall, Black Label Society, Brand New Sin, Machine Head and many other bands in the metal scene.
