About Us

In the summer of 2011, while I was in the 7th grade, a spark of creativity ignited within me. I had always been passionate about art, but at that time, I didn't quite know how to channel it. It was my dad who suggested that I consider starting a clothing brand. Little did I know that this simple idea would evolve into something much bigger.

As I progressed to high school, I had the good fortune of meeting someone who would become a close friend and business partner - Preston. Our friendship flourished rapidly as we discovered our shared interests in fashion and the active lifestyle we both loved. It became evident that together, we possessed the skills and vision needed to launch what we now know as OddPlay, our very own clothing line. 

However, our journey was far from smooth. We encountered obstacles and setbacks, the most significant of which was the heartbreaking passing of my father in May 2019. My father was not just a parent; he was my hero. His loss left a profound void in my life, making it incredibly challenging for me to find motivation.

  Yet, amidst the grief, I delved into learning more about mental health. I became increasingly determined to raise awareness about this critical issue, wanting to support those who might be silently struggling with their mental well-being. OddPlay became a platform not only for our passion for fashion but also for a cause that deeply mattered to me. 

After several years of hard work and dedication, we proudly launched our first summer collection in July 2021. What sets OddPlay apart is our commitment to making a difference. We donate 5% of our gross profit to NAMI, an organization dedicated to suicide prevention. 

We sincerely hope that you will appreciate and love our products as much as we do. At OddPlay, we are more than just a clothing brand; we are advocates for mental health awareness, carrying forward the memory of my father and helping those in need. Enjoy our creations, and together, let's make a positive impact on the world.
