From Verde/Howler Brothers:
Howler Brothers, soulful designers of high-quality clothing and accessories that draw inspiration from waves, water, geography, fashion, and art, has teamed up with Verde PR & Brand Communications as its agency of record. The partnership combines Howler Bros.’ passion and deep roots in the lifestyle and culture of watersports and tropical pursuits with Verde’s diverse, 12-year experience in the outdoor, action sports, and lifestyle markets to enhance brand messaging, promote category and sales growth, and reach new demographics.
“Everyone at Howler Bros. is fired up about our partnership with Verde,” said Andy Stepanian, co-founder of Howler Bros. “Their deep connections to the outdoor industry and history of helping articulate lifestyle brands will be essential to us as we continue to define and grow Howler. From the first conversation with them, it was clear that the Verde team gets what we do and knows how to help us realize the huge vision we have for our brand.”
Based in Austin, Texas, Howler Bros. is best known for its unmistakable authentic style, calling on the timelessness of the coastal sports and remote locations that united founders Stepanian and Chase Heard.
Howler Bros. favors small-batch production and collaborations with artists and craftsmen to create original, alternative offerings rather than following the latest trends. Every garment and accessory is crafted with functionality and attention to detail, and is infused with style and love for the outdoors, surfing, fly-fishing, paddling, and good times. As the brand looks to continue its commitment to its heritage while inviting the uninitiated to “Heed the Call,” Verde will develop and execute effective strategy for new market growth, increased brand awareness, and sales-driven campaigns.
“Howler Bros. brings a unique blend of form and function to the active lifestyle and action sports space with its authentic image and genuine passion for producing high-quality goods,” said Kristin Carpenter-Ogden, president and CEO of Verde. “Our partnership is a great fit, and we are excited to support the brand’s growth and goals with our experience and inventive implementation of strategic brand communications.”
