Modegeschiedenis
Founded in 2002 on the Gold Coast by brothers Ian and Paul Everet, Unit emerged from the burgeoning freestyle motocross scene. The brand gained cultural significance by sponsoring elite athletes and producing graphic-heavy apparel that defined the visual identity of early 2000s action sports. It transitioned from a niche garage operation to a global distributor. Its role in fashion history is marked by the fusion of technical gear requirements with aggressive, street-inspired design elements.
