interroBANG accoutrements
When the rites of passage through the streets requires trappings beyond the obvious.
When embellishments are needed to distinguish you as victor in the din of trends.
You're done settling for things mass produced that merely mimics your true passions.
You've always wanted to don an essence that both the prestigious and the notorious covet.
Ultimately, a style honed by hustling should command both questions and exclamations.
So WTF!? If you're true to yourself you can rock it...
Biography
interroBANG was conceived in 2006 by after hour forces and is directed by human vessels Ren Yoneyama and
ally agents from the City of Angels - Los Angeles, California.
interroBANG is a couture inspired street accessory brand with an innovative emphasis on all cross sections of pop, indie, and sub-culture. It is
created by and for the elite aspect in those who are beacons of expression that can also out stand the hype.
Manifesto
The creative processes of interroBANG often involve recontextualization and deconstruction of familiar objects to achieve new iconic manifestations.
We believe that a methodical parody is an art and that the art of bullshit is a paradox that's worth mastering.
We wish to network with left fielders who are erecting their own center stage. Those who are getting respect not demanding it.
We want to salute those who keep kids bumping 'til the sun rises. Those who sling in order to pay for studio time.
Those who use the streets as their gallery. We don't want you to be doing an action sport per se or jockin' your way
into a wack club night. We sponsor the individual who's on their course and who's given gravity inspires others around to take suit and move.
interroBANG, within the current zeitgeist, is conscientious of green practices and therefore wishes to think globally and act locally.
Everything we produce is manufactured right here in downtown LA, in the USA, or in our neighboring country of Mexico.
WTF?! Come out swingin' and go out with a bang!
