Inspire Thread Company
Inspire Thread Company was founded with a mission to inspire young people to step outside of what society deems is this generation's potential. The company closed its doors in 2016, but during its time, every shirt in the Inspire Line was inspired by a young person doing something extraordinary. We celebrate the legacy of Inspire Thread Company, and hope to inspire others to continue to push the boundaries of what is possible.
See the designs below and their inspirations. Inspiration biographies are largely from the original 2014-2016 release of the shirts and may be outdated.
Natalie Maulucci
The Maulucci Tee was named after Natalie Maulucci—a talented graphic design artist from Melbourne, Australia. Natalie’s love of art and drawing started when she was just four-years-old, and she started designing in 2012. After school, she didn’t have a clear picture of what she wanted to do, so she decided to step out on her own and start up the Maulucci Design business. She has had fast success, and now boasts a worldwide clientele.
Trevor Logan
The Logan Tee was inspired after Trevor Logan. Having been inspired by the legends Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee, Trevor Logan began his career in martial arts at the age of 5. An extremely dedicated practitioner, at the time of the shirt's inspiration, he held the rank of 2nd degree blackbelt. Trevor began competing in Sport Karate, early on gaining numerous national and international titles. Throughout his years in competition, he developed an interest and began training in Martial Arts Tricking. His interests and knowledge have expanded to include fight choreography, stunts, hip hop dancing, and acting. After moving to Los Angeles to pursue his goals, he got an amazing opportunity to portray Spider-Man in Marvel’s first ever live stunt show, Marvel Universe Live! Performing for audiences of up to 20,000 per night, it seemed like a dream job playing such a beloved character. Trevor is inspired to help others find their passion and build on it. He hopes to spread inspiration through movement as an art form. His long-term goal is to star in films that speak to the soul and become iconic in movie history.
