About Brandblack

Fashion meets performance. Brandblack is an independent footwear brand from Los Angeles, founded by David Raysse — who has a background with major sports brands — together with Billy Dill. Dissatisfied with the limitations of those large companies, they started their own brand, with the fusion of fashion and high performance at its core.

Rooted in basketball. That background is clear: Brandblack developed, among other things, a signature basketball shoe for former NBA player Jamal Crawford and created the shoes worn by the Ball brothers. Innovation and testing new technologies are central to the brand.

From casual to court. The brand deliberately builds a broad offering: from everyday sneakers to running and basketball models, as well as collaborations with names such as Salehe Bembury. Always with an emphasis on quality, function and an independent direction of its own.
