Founded in 2015 by Mexican-American designer Jairo Garcia in Orange County, California, Badfriend is a streetwear label rooted in skate culture. The brand gained significant traction for its distinctive denim featuring a Bapesta-inspired star logo on the crotch, which quickly became a signature item. With an aesthetic described as gritty, rebellious, and unapologetic, Badfriend's collections include oversized hoodies, graphic t-shirts, and accessories that resonate with a youth-driven audience. The designs often feature bold, zine-inspired graphics and provocative slogans, cultivating an anti-hero persona.
