The marathon clothing is a brand that was owned by the popular rapper Nipsey Hussle who pioneered the concept and was fast-growing it until is untimely death.
The progression of the project, Hussle said, was natural. From his own words he said “Being from L.A. and being influenced by fashion, I always was into clothes,” he explained. “And then just following the model of being influential in more than one category and trying to create businesses in those categories … Fashion is one of the categories that, if you’re a certain type of music artist, you become influential in those spaces. So me being an entrepreneur and a hustler, I wanted to actually have a business in one of those places.”
The clothing line has since grown from that first sweatshirt into a much bigger collection of sweats, tees, pants, outerwear, and accessories. It even includes women’s and children’s apparel as well. But aesthetically, it’s cohesive: rooted in core designs like the signature, swooping “Crenshaw” graphic and an American flag-themed “TMC” logo.

After Nipsey’s death, there has been questions as to who will own his clothing brand.
Nipsey Hussle’s family has announced they will open “the Marathon Clothing store No. 2” in Los Angeles this year, which was a longtime goal for the late MC. Currently, Nipsey’s family owns the Marathon Clothing.
