Contempt Clothing Company at MAGIC International Fashion Tradeshow - February 21-24, Las Vegas, NV

Sin City hosts the biggest international tradeshow for the fashion industry. Everyone who's anyone is there and reppin' their various clothing lines. It was cool to see all the great stuff out there and get a feel for where the styles and trends are going. We saw some great clothing ... met some cool folks ... even managed to get bounced from Puff Daddy's Sean Jean booth - guess we were a little underdressed. A few folks there asked about our designs as I rocked Contempt all week at the show. That felt good. We'll definitely be back there this summer. Took a few pics to share (below) - check out my buddy Dreak with Robert Townsend, Melle Melle (legendary MC from Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five) and tattoo artist to the stars, Mr. Cartoon, from L.A. We also met Dennis Hoff (Bunny Ranch, HBO's CATHOUSE) - who I have to say is one of the nicest guys that we met that week. We got to talking with him, and he told us all about his early years in real estate out here in Phoenix. From selling homes to ho's ... gotta love it! Also, dig the kickass rides on display at Joker's booth and the West Coast Choppers ...

Contempt Clothing and the UFC

Here at Contempt Clothing we are always on the lookout for people and or events that embody the spirit of an “outlaw” attitude. I first met Gio at a local Phoenix tattoo shop while getting some ink. He was very impressed with the designs I showed him of our goods here at Contempt Clothing, particularly our El Violencia line. After getting to know Gio he informed me that he was training to fight in the UFC. Gio’s trainer is none other than UFC badass Joe Riggs!
I am a huge boxing, mixed martial arts fan so we here at Contempt have teamed up with Gio and we are pleased to be sponsoring him with our El Violencia line of clothing. We will keep you informed of his future fights and progress.
