INTRODUCTION


WELCOME TO HOBO JACK! FOUNDED IN 2014 BY BROTHERS DAN AND JIMMY, THE BRAND BEGAN HUMBLY, WITH THEIR FIRST ORDERS PRINTED RIGHT FROM THEIR GARAGE. BEFORE HOBO JACK CAME TO LIFE, DAN AND JIMMY SPENT THEIR DAYS TRAVELING THE WORLD WITH LITTLE MORE THAN THEIR ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT. ALONG THE WAY, THEY EARNED THE NICKNAME "THE HOBO BROTHERS," A FITTING TITLE THAT STUCK AND ULTIMATELY INSPIRED THE BRAND.

THE GARAGE WHERE THE JOURNEY BEGAN

THE DREAM


BEFORE THE DAYS OF INSTAGRAM, IT WAS HARD TO FIND A BRAND THAT TRULY CAPTURED OUR PASSION FOR TATTOOS AND TRAVEL. AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM OUR ADVENTURES, WE REALISED WE WANTED TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT BLENDED THESE TWO LOVES, AND THAT'S HOW THE IDEA FOR HOBO JACK WAS BORN. TODAY, THAT VISION HAS COME TO LIFE IN THE BRAND YOU SEE NOW.

 

THE GROWTH


WITH NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IN THE CLOTHING INDUSTRY, DAN AND JIMMY DOVE HEADFIRST INTO THE BUSINESS, STARTING WITH A SMALL DIGITAL PRINTER IN THEIR GARAGE. THEY POURED EVERY HARD-EARNED PENNY BACK INTO THE BRAND, FUELING ITS GROWTH. WHAT BEGAN IN THAT HUMBLE GARAGE HAS NOW EVOLVED INTO A NETWORK OF OFFICES AND WAREHOUSES NATIONWIDE. TODAY, THEY BOAST CUTTING-EDGE  PRINTING MACHINES, EFFICIENT GARMENT FOLDING AND PACKING EQUIPMENT, AND ONE OF THE FINEST DIGITAL PRINTING SETUPS IN THE UK.

THE SHOP


IN 2020, JIMMY EXPANDED HIS HORIZONS BY ENTERING THE TATTOO INDUSTRY, TEAMING UP WITH HIS PARTNER AMY TO LAUNCH A TATTOO STUDIO. THEIR VENTURE HAS QUICKLY BECOME ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER TATTOO DESTINATIONS IN THE DORSET AREA. NESTLED IN THE SCENIC COUNTRYSIDE AT PARLEY MANOR, THEIR STUDIO IS NOW RENOWNED FOR ITS EXCEPTIONAL ARTISTRY AND VIBRANT ATMOSPHERE.

THE COMMUNITY


HOBO JACK IS A WHOLLY INDEPENDENT, FAMILY-RUN BUSINESS THAT VALUES THE IMPORTANCE OF OUR CUSTOMERS AND IS DEDICATED TO FOSTERING A STRONG COMMUNITY WITH YOU. THIS YEAR, HOBO JACK CELEBRATED A SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE BY SURPASSING 400,000 ORDERS. EVERY DAY, SHIRT BY SHIRT, OUR COMMUNITY IS EXPANDING RAPIDLY, AND WE OWE THIS INCREDIBLE GROWTH TO YOUR UNWAVERING SUPPORT. THANK YOU FOR BEING AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE HOBO JACK JOURNEY.

COLLABORATIONS


COLLABORATIONS ARE SO IMPORTANT TO THE BRAND; WE HAVE WORKED WITH ARTISTS, MODELS, CREATORS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE TO BRING YOU UNIQUE COLLECTIONS FROM LONDON, NEW YORK, TOKYO, BERLIN, AMSTERDAM, LOS ANGELES AND ICELAND.

THE END GAME


FOR US BROTHERS, MONEY HAS NEVER BEEN THE DRIVING FORCE. WE NEVER ANTICIPATED OUR BRAND WOULD REACH SUCH HEIGHTS. OUR TRUE AMBITION HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO BUILD A UNIQUE, INDEPENDENT FAMILY-RUN CLOTHING BRAND THAT DOESN’T JUST FOLLOW THE RULES BUT HAS THE FREEDOM TO REDEFINE THEM ON OUR OWN TERMS. THIS APPROACH ENSURES THAT THE GAME IS EVER-EVOLVING AND NEVER TRULY ENDS.
