About 2 Tha Point Clothing Company
About the Brand -
2 Tha Point is a Street Wear Brand that is inspired by Basketball, Skateboarding, and Club wear. Growing Up, I started designing clothes in the 7th grade just by drawing designs on a notepad as a hobby. Now, I'm up to 3 notepads, that each has about 70 pages each and have maybe 2 to 6 Designs per page. So, I decided to start making these designs from my drawings as well as any new ideas I think of along the way. I have always loved basketball and football so that will always be something that will be a part of the brand but I also have a love for skateboarding and Street Wear. Also, I'm a huge fan of shoes and Jordan Brand, in particular, I have really been into fashion my whole life.
As you can see, most of my clothing designs are mainly for women. It will be from Causal to Clubwear. Eventually any swimwear and lingerie.
For the men, I'm a Sneakerhead so my designs are mainly urban streetwear and Sports gear. I will Always try to include popular colorways to match the popular shoes coming out.
My clothing will always be at a reasonable price as I want it to be affordable. I am going to start off with t-shirts and Hoodies, and then add different item along the way. The standard price for my items will be between $30 -$40. I hope not to have anything over $60. I do believe in "paying it forward" so I will also have a set donation amount of 10% of all profits throughout the life of the company, once I start making a decent profit. I will donate at least 10% of all profits to a nationally known non-profit organization.
Here are my short term goals, or a to-do list, for the company I want to complete in the near future. I will update this list regularly with any changes that occur
1. Update all sketches to digital image ( Completed )

5. Start a YouTube channel showing the growth of the company
6. Storefront in Omaha or Las Vegas, and also start selling Shoes

If I expand, I would like to open stores, if possible, in the following cities:
Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, or Houston
About the Designer-
Hey, My name is Jay and I'm the owner. I’m from Omaha, NE but I grow up in Las Vegas and San Diego as well. Growing up, I have always had a dream of starting my own Clothing company. I have drawn hundreds of designs in my spare time and I finally decided to get it started. I currently have a great job and I have accomplished so much in my life already but I feel like this is the best time to go after my dreams. I am not rich by any means but I make a decent living as a Bank supervisor and I honestly have been able to make a great life for myself. I have worked at my current job going on 5 years now I really feel like it’s time for a change. I plan to work at my main job until I see it is possible to live comfortably with my new business. If my goal is reached, I will quit my job and pursue my clothing company full time. I truly want to own my own business and have something with a purpose in my life. I'm to a point where I have everything I really need and I truly am in a position where I should follow my main Lifelong dream of starting this clothing line. I have shown my drawing to many people throughout the years and I have always gotten great feedback. So many people have told me they would buy my designs if they were ever made, and that gave me motivation.
Speaking of motivation, I was deeply inspired by my favorite Rapper Nipsey Hussle, who sadly passed away recently. He always preached about dedication, hustle, and motivation. His passing motivated me to hurry up and open my website ASAP, tomorrow ain’t promised. I also was heavy inspired by Youtubers like BulletRC, Tony D 2Wild, Mr. Foamer Simpson & Young Buckets, Unbreakable kicks, Sniper Jones Jones, and Sean Go. I wanted to also send a special thank you to those who have motivated me to pursue my dreams. Special thanks to my Mom, my Dad, and my close friends. All you guys have motivated me to pursue my dreams and try to make it happen.
I hope you enjoy what I have put together and please don't hesitate to reach out with any feedback or comments you have.
