THE CERTIFIED OFFICIAL STORY
ABOUT OUR JOURNEY
The seed for Certified Official was planted back in 2018, when inspiration struck the owner and founder of Certified Official, Mark
With an eye for style and a love for street wear, he wanted to inspire those who share his passion to look and feel as dope as they are. With a firm belief that the way you look directly relates to how you feel, he set out to curate a selection of urban-wear fit for the outcast
Fast-forward to 2021, and Mark was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Despite his diagnosis, he was determined to bring his ideas to life. Having always wanted to be his own boss, and having a colorful background of criminal history, he saw Certified Official as a powerful way to give back and realize his dream.
OUR MISSION
We want to lead by example, never accepting the perceptions others have of you as the end all be all. We want to change the narrative of what people believe they’re capable of, especially those who have been through or share our background. We believe that if you can dream it, you can do it. Belief, dedication, and desire are all you need to become your greatest version. Helping you prove the naysayers’ wrong drives us to be better and do more. Through our streetwear, we hope to keep you looking certified official every day of the week.
