Inspired by a popular streetwear brand, Social Distance Social Club has emerged in the time of a pandemic. The new Los Angeles-based streetwear brand was created to speak especially to Gen Z and Millennials and bring awareness to the importance of social distancing and at the same time, raise money for World Central Kitchen.
The brand currently offers everything from t-shirts and hoodies to tank tops and face masks, all of which share a simple and straightforward message: Social Distancing Saves Lives. The new streetwear brand launched with record-breaking sales and five dollars from every item sold is donated to support the World Central Kitchen COVID-19 relief program.
