Our Story

Passion, camaraderie, and making memories since 2015

Starting with everything that our lives have been surrounded by, right in our home state… Life Brand begins with our very first product, our Classic 3d Puff Embroidered Flat Brim Hat. This was the very beginning of “Ride MN”.

Stage 1: Ride Minnesota

Friends, family, and the local community now had apparel to represent our very own riding scene here in Minnesota. Our products started supporting local events with fundraisers & donations, promoting our local retailers, inspiring more participants, and bringing together our family called Ride Minnesota.

Stage 2: Ride Brand

Word soon spread across state lines into new products for Ride Wisconsin and Ride Michigan, supporting all 50 states & countries, bringing together our family called Ride Brand.

Stage 3: Life Brand

More genres were soon born as the simplicity of Ride caught more attention… Fish, Hunt, Golf, Camp, Yoga… Our local solution had turned into products for all, bringing together our family called Life Brand. “Apparel for Passions”

Stage 4: My Brand

The challenges of starting any new apparel brand are endless… Let alone, replicating products for all 50 states and countries. However, it ultimately led to our solution… And we call it, My Brand. That’s right, you can now automate your own apparel needs with our platform. No other tool has allowed us to efficiently replicate this exact same experience for so many different logos, and now we’re giving access to you as well.

Our Warehouse (Version 3.0)

Starting in 2016, Life Brand moved from its home office into its very first warehouse space of only about 500 square feet.

In 2019, Life Brand moved its operations into its second warehouse, and doubled the amount of working space to about 1,000 square feet.

Fast forward to 2022, it was time to upgrade again in our more current location where we have once again doubled our space. Now with 30′ ceilings, new pallet racking, and about 2,000 total square feet, we finally have breathing room for the team with up to a dozen workstations for our production team, and even enough space for product displays just inside our front door.

We are now located at:

Life Brand
