History

Anti Social Social Club was founded in 2015 through Twitter.[14] It releases limited collections each year. The inspiration for creating this brand came from the founder's mental health struggle at age 27.[15] Lurk used his brand as an emotional outlet for his depression. The first product was a basic hat with the logo on the side.[15] Shortly after its founding, ASSC became a popular trend. Some notable celebrities have worn this brand such as Kanye West, BTS, and Kim Kardashian.[16]
