C808 may have just found the next designer of swag items for men! Meet 15-year-old Cody Hicks, who is the CEO of clothing label CHICKS. This young fly one who hails from Omaha, Nebraska has a portfolio of t-shirts, sweaters and Letterman jackets that made us do a double take. The look and style of his line is light years ahead of the typical stylings of someone in his age group.
"I started designing T-shirts and clothes for fun, but when I saw how others reacted to my designs I wanted to further my clothing line," said Hicks, who partnered with his friend Charles "Chuck" Dreager, also 15, to develop the line. " I'm just a regular guy that loves to design T's."
Hicks plans to have his first T-shirt design made this coming weekend. He also anticipates the day that he sells his first item and even launches a website that will allow Internet surfers to buy his clothes. His thoughts on fashion are that of a typical teenager: fashion is missing something and everyone looks the same. (We're not teenagers and we feel this way too.)
"I'm doing my own think, and being me," said Hicks, who is a big fan of Pharrell and his label Ice Cream. "I have so many ideas and plans for the future that I feel that I might be able to bring that fresh perspective back."
...Well you heard it here first folks. Keep and eye out for Cody and his label in a store near you! We believe his line is well deserving of a Yes Siiiiiiir node from us.
