Daymon Green, Triple 5 Soul Brand Development

 OSA, based in NYC, is a comprehensive vertically integrated supply chain, a proprietary and national brand marketer with vertical in house product development from yarn to finished garment. Born in 1989, Triple Five Soul originated as a humble storefront in New York City’s Lower East Side.

Originally entitled with a tongue-in-cheek reference to one of the then-popular telephone party lines, T5S quickly became a focal point for a multi-faceted, quickly emerging cultural movement.

In 1997, only months after opening its NYC flagship store on fashionable Lafayette Street, T5S began expanding international wholesale business.

Increasing coverage in a wide range of fashion magazines, a genuine popularity amongst this generation’s cultural heroes and the unorthodox establishment of a base of operations in Brooklyn’s then upcoming Williamsburg neighborhood all contributed to Triple Five Soul’s broad and fashion-forward visibility as a leader in the streetwear industry.

DrJays.com Content Coordinator, Kiki and buyersEricka Mitton and Aaron Jones paid Triple 5 Soul a visit to write the line. Check out a few highlights from the appointment.

We previewed great wovens, fleece sets, rugby shirts and more.

Are you excited about the T5S’s comeback?
