Today, Nouns clothes are limited to drop-shipped, plug-n-play merch. Our goal is to create a cut and sewn Nouns clothing line to seed through public channels with the intention of building brand familiarity outside of web3.
The team behind Nouns Brand is highly experienced in web3 and fashion. Among other things, we recently created the Creature World x Advisry clothing collection.

⌐◨-◨ is the full stack of web3 with a dash of magic. Nouns implies quality and creativity, but also carries a whiff of mass culture which has the potential to turn the noses of consumers outside of the know.
From a business perspective, the full-speed push into tasteful clothing that pulls from Nouns imagery is a logical step forward. What is cc0 without encouraging designers and artists the freedom to take Nouns creative assets and explore? The next generation of artists will wear Nouns.

This section contains our vision for what the future of Nouns Brand could be and is outside the scope of this prop.
Fashion is gatekept, we believe art is for everyone. To encourage others to start their own creative journeys, our dream is to create a direct-to-consumer white label service for artists to make their own clothes through Nouns Brand. We will use Nouns Blanks to allow people to print designs and empower people to create, built on Nouns.
Nouns Brand can be a channel for collaboration as companies seek partners in bridging the gaps of the sacred and profane: web2 and web3.
Work with aligning companies we have relationships with to create limited collaborations with Nouns through Nouns Brand, our wish list includes:
We envision a Nouns brick and mortar store, the Nounge, in the Soho neighborhood of New York City. An experiential Nouns Brand space to shop and serve as a storefront for collaboration activations. The Nounge will also serve as the premiere carrier for Nouns Coffee in NY.
