CHILLSTRIKE – FOUNDER STORY (IN BRYAN’S VOICE)

My Story

ChillStrike started when I was 11.

I got injured playing soccer and had to stay home for a while.
I couldn’t play, couldn’t train… I was just bored.

So I started drawing.

At first it was just random — just trying to pass time.
But after a while, I actually started liking what I was making.

Then one day I got excited and said,
“What if we put this on clothes?”
Like… make jerseys or something people could wear.

Especially for people like me —
people who can’t play for some reason or another,
but still love the game.

I wanted it to be something that gives people confidence…
something that reminds them they’re still strong, even in moments like that.

How It Became Real

At first, my mom wasn’t really into the idea.

She was like, “I can’t deal with that right now.”

But I kept asking.
I kept showing her my drawings.
I kept pushing.

Eventually, both my mom and dad gave in and said okay.

The Beginning of ChillStrike

And that’s how ChillStrike started.

We launched it on my 12th birthday.

What started from being stuck at home turned into something real.

What It Means to Me

ChillStrike is more than just clothes to me.

It’s about confidence.
It’s about not giving up.
It’s about still believing in yourself, even when things aren’t going your way.

Still Building

I’m still learning.
Still creating.
Still building this step by step.

And  I am just getting started
