Today 11/11/14 is 11th Loop’s 3 Year Anniversary. It all started in a small cabin in the woods of Prescott, Arizona on 11/11/11. An idea of two creative brothers to team up and create functional art work for all to enjoy. Nathaniel a photographer and Benjamin a graphic designer created the lingo and the style of Graphic Textile Design with the twist of a Sustainable Lifestyle.
It has been a year since our last post and a lot has happened since the beginning of this lifestyle brand. This year we opened the first of many 11th Loop stores on the bay front in Hilo, Hawaii.

What does 11th Loop mean to You?
11: is a balanced number, I was born at 11:11am so I have always had a special connection with this number though out my life. The night of 11/11/11 as my brother and I were coming up with names for hours. I was standing in the kitchen cooking in the cabin. Then I heard a voice say to me “11th Loop”. I had no idea where it came from, but I rolled with it. So I told Nathaniel to look it up and see if it was taken by any other person on the internet. He found nothing. So that was the beginning of the branding of 11th Loop. At first we were not sure where to take it, but today we have seen the power of sticking to your dreams and never giving up.
