About Thug Nine
In the late 90s, Rio de Janeiro fashion was largely dominated by beachwear brands, but there was an underground scene in the city that wasn't represented by this style.
Out of a personal desire to wear something that represented him, DJ Binho 1999 founded Thug Nine in 09. His main inspiration was the North American ghettos of the West Coast (West Side). Cities like Compton, Inglewood, and South Central served and continue to serve as inspiration for the brand's lifestyle, due to their strong connection to hip-hop culture.
With this, Thug Nine was able to create a unique and original movement in Rio de Janeiro fashion, becoming one of the pioneering brands in the national streetwear segment. Over the past two decades, Thug Nine has remained active in a relevant way, without losing its essence and originality.
