About Me



Founded in 1999, APB (American Pig Brand) is a streetwear clothing brand based in San Diego, California. APB has established a brand based on the concept of the unique and often excessive aspects of American culture. From SUVÕs, to 24 hour drive-thrus, to pre-approved platinum credit cards, AmericaÕs super-sized lifestyle is extraordinary. The brandÕs graphics and logos balance current trends and style, as well as portray the core concept. The nature and tone of the APB voice is clever, witty, humorous, and well styled. It encompasses commercialism, politics, pop culture, and topical issues.
The APB concept of satirizing the establishment is not a new one but itÕs unique brand and identity are. It is this satirical view of American culture that the core demographic can strongly relate to. It celebrates the American way Ð our freedom, our individualism, and our quirks. It acknowledges that we, as Americans, like to be our own spokespersons and proudly display our points of view and expressions.

My Interests


"Change." It's an old cliché wielded by presidential candidates who, all to often, support exactly the opposite. Here at apb, though, we've always disdained the status quo while also preaching hope for the future. Call us naive, but we still believe that "change" is possible. We've just been waiting for the right man (or woman) to come along. And now he has.

That's why we're launching the Obama Project, a collection of cool shirts supporting Barack Obama. We are proud to promote a candidate who has both the desire and ability to change the ways of Washington. Putting our money where our mouth is, 25% of the profits from these shirts will be donated to Vote Hope (www.votehope2008.com). Their mission is to make California’s voice heard loudly and clearly even before voting begins in Iowa, with the intention of delivering California to Obama.

Now you can make a difference -- and look good while doing it. We are at the tipping point so represent, regester and vote.
