(Continued) Shinola, founded just six years ago, is possibly the most prominent
example of the popularity of Detroit as a brand. The company displays "Detroit" on
all its products, which they sell from more than 20 stores in every corner of the United
States. Other fashion companies have capitalized on the Detroit brand, such as local
apparel companies like Detroit Is The New Black, Detroit VS Everybody, and Detroit
Hustles Harder. If things continue to gain momentum heading into the New Year, the
opportunity for Detroit to develop into a major fashion center for clothing design and
manufacturing is huge. Stay Tuned!
