AMPLIFY - Issue Three (Summer 2022)

CORTEIZ Clint, the brand’s founder and illustrious master - mind, started Corteiz from his bedroom in 2017 with screen-printed crewnecks and t-shirts. They featured the now recognisable Alcatraz logo, which repre - sents the core message behind the brand – breaking free from the norm and ruling your own world. Corteiz says it’s proudly different from other streetwear empires. The release of new collections or drops are still limited and highly competitive, selling out in minutes after release. On these days the Corteiz website is the only place you can buy Corteiz products and this attitude is what has cre - ated such a tight knit community around the brand. Corteiz doesn’t rely on reselling to maintain their popularity. Instead every garment is just made to last, to be kept and to be treasured. The brand has a strong identity visually as well, with collections including their trademark joggers, distinctive bala - clavas, bold graphics and powerful messages.
