Spend Money is a lifestyle/clothing brand in Shanghai established in July, 2014. Originally founded by Allen Lv, the literal collaboration of east and west brings street wear culture a new perspective. Spend Money’s influences lie in traditional Chinese art and culture, American street wear & youth culture. Currently Spend Money is in its early stages of development but in the near future they pla
n to work with Artists who are currently residing in China to collaborate on garments that are of high quality and made in limited numbers. The concept behind Spend Money is that of the modern day hustler. We need to use money to survive, you make it, you spend it, and that’s that. The constant grind of young artists in the city trying to make it in a country that is itself on the “come up”. Here at ‘SPEND MONEY’ we are tackling the common misconception that products ‘MADE IN CHINA’ are of lesser quality. Whilst this was true in the past, through the new breed of young designers and artists emerging in China, this perception is changing worldwide. For like minded designers, photographers, graffiti artists, skateboarders & other creatives living in the China, Spend Money is with y’all!
