When Jono Friend and Macloed Mtiza started Vot clothing in their backyard in Shoalhaven heads just over a year ago, the only thought they had for the brand was to make clothes for themselves and their friends that were different from what you would buy in most Westfields. Now both the apprentice carpenters are starting to get such high demand for the colourful tee’s and tongue in cheek jerseys, its plausible for this to become a full time job in the very near future.

Over the last twelve months the brand has grown from tie dye shirts and jumpers the boys made on the south coast into a trendy label with a range of baseball shirts , Jerseys, Beanies, Hats and of course a bunch of head turning T shirt designs. With the help of bunch of friends brainstorming ideas, a popular instagram and now a fully functioning online store Jono and Macloed are finding it difficult to make enough shirts for the growing demand. Orders have been flying out across the country and even overseas, most recently the brand has been seen on the back of Chris Emerson from What So Not whilst on the Mothership Tour across the United States with non other then Skrillex.

“The Menace” has documented the brand from it’s humbling beginnings until present and has some pretty images to show from it.
