In celebration of one my most favorite holidays, 4/20, we will be celebrating with a limited tee in collaboration with Hater Magazine. Yup that right a 420 tee. So stay tuned more details to come.
Looking back is a crazy feeling. These days I’m deep in emails every morning and the schedule never seems to get any more clearer. Just one more meeting followed by one by more deadlines. So when you get a chance to stop in the middle of it all, look back and what you’ve done and take stock of the progress, it’s pretty wild.
Anyway I been slacking on the updates I admit but it's never without a good reason. Nitty Gritty series and other collabs and surprise are coming soon.... real soon. :)
A couple of years ago, long before Grits, in a galaxy far far away, I was in a relationship. Actually, my longest to date. Well to make a long story short, it went sour and we broke up. Honestly, looking back, I couldn't been happier about the way things turned out. I don't think I would've put as much energy into Grits if I still was in that relationship.
So, by now you are wondering where I am going with this. Well, I'm just tired of seeing people stay in relationships for the wrong reason ... Settling for less, just because they’re afraid they won't find another person. If this is you ... If you’re not fully happy, feeling incomplete, finding yourself checking in a bazillion times a day, because of trust issues, then do something about it. Some people get so caught up in a relationship that they half-ass their art, their dreams, and eventually their life.
In my opinion, the smartest thing to do is to make sure you build a strong foundation for your life before taking on the responsibility of a relationship. It’s not fair to your lover or friend and it’s not fair for you.
Sorry guys its been a minute since I put up a post. But dont fret new work and new projects are coming soon. Until then here is little something to wet your palate.

It began with only a name that reminded me of Houston/Texas/Southern culture, "Grits". The concept was simple, "No Grits No Glory", It's a reminder that if you want to do something you love for living, you will have to put your whole self into it. Hold back and you won't. It's that simple. This is what defines us and gives us a sense of self and what keeps us young.
Our creed is “No Grits No Glory”… At Grits, we grind our own peppers... and design clothing for those who do the same.
