About Us

We're Not Just a Brand. We're a Movement.

Hempire Clothing Co. was born in Schenectady, NY — a small city with a big soul. Growing up surrounded by street art, skateboarding, BMX, and cannabis culture, we didn't just wear our influences — we lived them. Brands like World Industries Skateboards and Tree Shurts showed us that clothing could be more than fabric. It could be a statement. A community. A way of life.

That's the vision we built Hempire on.

Rooted in Upstate NY. Built for Everyone.

We come from a place where creativity doesn't always get the spotlight it deserves. So we made our own. Hempire is for the skaters, the artists, the rebels, the dreamers — anyone who's ever felt like they were building something real in a world that wasn't paying attention yet.

Our designs aren't just graphics on a tee. They're stories. They're culture. They're the streets we grew up on, translated into something you can wear.

Community Over Everything

We believe in collaboration, not competition. That's why we've linked up with some of the most authentic voices in art, music, and culture:

  • MichaelAngelo Forbes — artist and 1st Place Quarter-Finalist for America's Top Hitmaker, bringing raw creative energy to the Hempire universe.
  • East Coast Remedies — keeping it rooted in the culture that inspired us from day one.
  • VillainsOnly — because the best stories are always told by the ones who play by their own rules. 

These aren't just collabs. They're proof that when real people come together around real values, something powerful gets created.
