When we saw their designs we saw an urban designer that could take Nigeria’s Urban Fashion to the rest of the World. Urban FU is cool, with a global yet indigenous outlook. Following in the steps of the global brands like BAPE, Billionaire Boys Club, Phat Farm, LRG and others, Urban FU is a Nigerian Brand that looks set to go global.
Starting out as an Artsy Urban Fashion Collective by a group of young, dynamic and creative people, it has grown to be the voice of many trendy Nigerian Youth, confident, cool and Upscale. Founded by Writer and Designer Olujimi Ojikutu, an idea with a group of friends is quickly becoming a global catch. Urban FU has sold Tshirts in Major cities in Nigeria, Ghana, UK and the US. With the aim of expanding its brand worldwide Urban FU is set to redefine Nigerian Urban Clothing.
‘Our aim is the expression of the youth, his energy, her imagination…we try to make every T-shirt tell a story of what’s going on in the mind of the youth. With Urban FU the mind is the Painter and the T-shirts the Canvas.’
The Urban Fashion industry in Nigeria is growing at a Rapid rate with other Urban Designers springing up and doing great things. With this, Nigeria is quickly joining the top fashion destinations like New York, London and Paris, and it’s only a matter of time Nigeria is at par with them.
