OUR STORY AND VISION We are related, our garments are coordinated, and we are all connected by one common thread. Related Undergarments (RLTD) is a unique apparel company creating the next wave of fashionable underwear for customers who want to put together their everyday basics, starting with the essentials: socks and underwear. Founders and brothers David and Mike Appel have developed this concept to change the world from the inside out. “We want to provide products that give our customers a sense of confidence with the first thing they put on in the morning. Our impeccably-crafted and stylish undergarment sets will not only be a positive way to start the day, but they will provide comfort through the night, when you really undress to impress.”- David and Mike ABOUT THE FOUNDERS David and Mike Appel are Los Angeles natives who have been influenced by all aspects of the fashion and entertainment industries, drawing their inspiration from a city that is constantly evolving. David has over 12 years of experience as a designer, and he appeared as a contestant on the second season of the NBC's reality competition series Fashion Star. David has created multiple clothing collections for both men and women, and Mike has always encouraged David to pursue his passion for design. Mike has been involved in producing some of the biggest entertainment events for over 15 years as a marketing professional, including Neon Carnival at Coachella, Maxim's hot 100 and glow run. His sharp sense of understanding the connection between fashion trends and consumerism has helped the brothers build a truly unparalleled lifestyle brand. HOW DO YOU RELATE?
