ISLNDZ is a lifestyle brand originated in Quincy, MA inside the apartment of 4 young men. Our founders cherish the concept of “express yourself”. All of them with both unique styles and personalities, merge contemporary ideas with their cultural background from motherland Cabo Verde, bringing the exotic and the artistic aptitude of the Cape Verdeans. Coming from such a small country, our founders have always been exposed to the groundbreaking curated styles from household names such as Nike, Adidas, Billabong, Vans, Kith and more. These names have shaped the reality of ISLNDZ today. The ISLNDZ team is focused on delivering products that are worth the wait and the wear. Here at ISLNDZ we source the best garments available and releases are very limited in order to center the focus on the product being developed/produced. We want to be the epitome of human expression and interaction through culture and common interests as well. Our mission is to innovate and merge today's fashion with the background of Cabo Verde Islands to create a unique identity and inserting it into the graphical and physical worlds of "style and cool". Our journey begins by innovating and creating unique collectible items that generate community involvement around them. The inspiration of our clothing wear is philosophically deep and grounded to our movement. Our Challenge centers on developing an identity closer to our fan base each day.
