Our story the short version.

 

Our story starts with a giant leap around the world, followed with a crash and burn.

 

A lot of people have been involved in our story through the past years, all of them adding their special flavor to the project. From day-one Punk Royal has been a collective of individuals.

 

When we started we had a great idea and no money. No money meant small investment, which in our case equalled second hand military gear. There is a lot of it, there is many different designs and styles, and it fits the name perfectly.

 

The Punk Royal in Gothic letters got printed across the butt of an old pair of Italian army trousers. The icon pants is our blessing and our curse. Everybody wanted the military pants.

 

And then it went surreal for a couple of years.

 

A lot of attention from all over the world hit us while we were sitting in Nørrebro spending all hours in the office and the workshop, stressed out. Surreal with the money flow, famous people calling, replicas from Greenland to Hong Kong, the spreading of the name and not least the feedback.

Anyhow people lost track, and so did we.

 

We split and the company went broke. Bankrupt and screwed.

 

In 2008 we got back together and decided we all needed to play around again. Basically because we know that even though everything exploded in our hands the last time, we also have this magic thing together that we all missed. So here we are again.

 

Now in the end of 2009 we have settled on a plan for the future of our little bastard Punk Royal. We will focus on making basic jeans wear and basic t-shirts with strong graphic prints, saving all the high end dreams for later. At the bottom line we are more everyday rock’n’rollers, than high rollers on a weekend basis.

 

After a year back on track we have gathered a team to push it all forward and onwards. Only time will tell if we have it right this time.

 

Humble regards.
