Founded in 2017 by Timothy Cochran in San Francisco, Daftboy is a queer-owned accessories brand deeply rooted in LGBTQ+ nightlife, drag culture, and the global festival scene. Inspired by the inclusive ethos of Cochran’s father, the brand has built a cult following for its unapologetically bold, expressive gear. Daftboy is best known for its signature large-scale hand fans—often featuring vibrant prints, pop-culture references, and a satisfying snap—that have become essential accessories for circuit parties and raves. The brand’s product lineup also includes vegan leather harnesses and streetwear-leaning festival apparel, all designed with a gender-fluid, inclusive approach.
