About Us
All For The Above — known simply as AFTA, or The AFTA Life — is a creative vessel built to honor legacy, preserve memory, and give spirit to the ones who are no longer with us. Founded by a multidisciplinary designer with a deep emotional core, AFTA was created from a space of grief, healing, and purpose. Each garment is an offering — stitched with sentiment, layered with intention, and made to be worn with meaning.
The brand first emerged with the Acid Rain Zip-Up, a symbol of both internal storm and spiritual cleansing. From there, AFTA grew into a visual language: washed-out tones, vintage textures, streetwear silhouettes, and angelic symbolism — all designed to reflect the beautiful weight we carry. Though the path hasn’t been linear, every pause and pivot has been part of the journey. AFTA is now stepping into its next chapter with a clearer voice and deeper vision. This isn’t just fashion. It’s purpose.
In an empty college dorm, I chose to do it All For The Above. Grief inspired my motivation, and I hope to inspire you. - Ed
