Cleveland Clothing Co.

"Spreading Cleveland Pride One T-Shirt At A Time!" CLE Clothing Co. was founded in 2008 by two lifelong friends. One, a graphic designer, had always dreamed of starting a t-shirt company. The other, an entrepreneur, was looking for a fun new opportunity. One fateful night over some beers, chili, and burgers at one of their favorite spots, Whitey's in Richfield, Ohio, the guys decided to put their money where their mouth was and came up with a plan.

Native-Cleveland, located in the up and coming Waterloo Arts District became not only its online "wear-house" but also gave the boys a physical store front for walk-in customers. Native quickly became a destination to shop CLE Clothing Co. in person and also gave the opportunity for the guys to partner and show off the other "Local-Makers" in the Cleveland area. They invited other artisans and designers to compliment their popular t-shirt designs. The store soon filled up with locally made jewelry, art and furniture. It was voted "Best Boutique - East Side" in 2010 by Cleveland Magazine. With a thriving online store that ships all over the world and a popular store front, in 2012 they opened up a Flagship store in the heart of do
