Dan Jacobs of Atreyu launches clothing line

Rokk Clothing is the brainchild of Dan Jacobs, guitarist with Atreyu. An avid fan of eighties rock, Dan would scour the Internet to find vintage T shirts. One day, in conversation with his brother Joe, they got to thinking about how much these T shirts cost and surely there must be a less expensive way to produce them. Dan had a very definite idea of the design, fabric, fit he wanted and together with Joe's business skills they have put together their first range.
Says Dan “I wanted to design my own brand because I wanted to produce the kind of T shirt I would buy, at a reasonable price. These ‘T’s had to look like real eighties stuff, classic rock band ‘T’ shirt’s in bold primary colors and design, – they’ve got to look so good that at first glance you’d think it was the real thing”.
ROKK clothing brings alive the classic rock shirt of today. All are original authentic designs, inspired by Dan and executed by Joe exclusive to the Rokk Clothing brand. The range also features Japanese style headbands, like the ones Dan wears during Atreyu’s performances.

The capsule range of ROKK Clothing was launched on October 1, 2007. Say’s Joe Jacobs “we have been really encouraged by initial sales and the excitement the range is generating. Orders have been received from all over the United States as well as from the United Kingdom, Austria, Germany and Italy.”

Bio: Dan Jacobs was born in Orange County, California in 1982. He has played guitar since the age of 12, and is guitarist for the rock band Atreyu since its creation in 1998. His passion for eighties rock and clothing has been a major influence in developing his unique style.
