Carrot Clothing
Art and protest stem from nothing more than a people’s need for positive change. In the case of art – it’s a quest for beauty; in the case of protest, it’s striving for a good and normal life. This is what I fight for.
- Alexander Gligorich, Founder, Carrot Clothing
(BIO BELOW)
Carrot Clothing is a safe-house for revolutionary minds and designs. Formed inSerbia in the late 90s, a period of intense political upheaval, this should come as no surprise.
In an effort to uplift lagging spirits and voice personal concerns about freedom and human rights, founder and designer, Alex Gligorich, began printing t-shirts featuring anti-war messages for family and friends. This move, though courageous, landed him in jail and at the mercy of unforgiving local authorities for spreading alleged “terrorist” policies. Since then, he has regrouped and joined
forces with internationally recognized skateboarders, street artists, and other creative minds to establish Carrot Clothing, a brand whose very essence is based upon the underdog, family relationships between art, skate, and street
communities.
Despite its two short years, Carrot is already being globally-recognized as a lifestyle brand in more than 20 countries, having appeared in countless magazines and websites. Past Carrot contributors have included art stars such as ESPO, Superblast, 123Klan, Michael Sieben, Jim Phillips, Dalek, Ben Frost, Esteban Oriol, Morningbreath with many more to come.
Carrot promises to continue on its journey with the hope of inspiring people in the same way that they themselves have been inspired by the remarkable feats of others. Watch for more tee shirts, an ever-expanding cut and sew line, along with a JB Classics sneakers collab with 123Klan, and an entire denim line as well.
