When three best friends created Big City, Big Dreams, a clothing line that represents Toronto’s “hustle hard, dream big” mentality, they hardly had any idea of the incredible impact their young entrepreneurial endeavor would have.
Now, over a year later and with hundreds of t-shirts and sweaters carrying the iconic logo, Abel Lulseged, John Cadougan and Moinor Gates’ Big City, Big Dreams Clothing line has not only stood up to the test of time but has gained the approval of the streets as well.
Often abbreviated as BCBD, these young taste-makers' brand and custom designs incorporate the beauty of the Toronto skyline while factoring in their own creativity and fashion sense that represents a certain Canadian aesthetic. With each design hand crafted and printed by this trio of swag, it’s safe to say that BCBD is a completely homegrown effort that is quickly engulfing the torso of males, females and even kids of Toronto’s streets.
