Brothers In Business

Find out how a CB trio started their own clothing brand that is inspiring others to “be original.”

“Stay Fresh, Stay Classy, Be Original.”

Christian Brothers seniors Jesse Corriea (’13), James Gordon (’13), and Shawn Grewal (’13) live by this motto as they design clothes for their innovative clothing brand, Be Original.

The creative trio, who have been featured on “Good Day Sacramento”, started their online business a few years ago.

According to Jesse, the boys “are really into the fashion industry and clothing” and wanted to create something new and fresh, hence the name, Be Original. The friends saw other people follow their dreams and create successful brands, such as Diamond, and decided that they could do it too.

Being original in their designs was a must for the entrepreneurs.

“Everybody’s wearing the same clothes [so] we wanted to try something new” says Jesse.

The business owners have frequent sales and boast competitive prices. A hoodie, t-shirt, and a free album by their music sponsor, Future5ive, is a great deal at just $40.

Accorinding to the group’s website, the aim of the Be Original is “to build on this lifestyle of being original, being yourself and doing ‘you’ and not what people tell you to be. Wearing our clothing represents this lifestyle and shows originality.”

So CB, make sure to check out the boys’ brand and “Stay Fresh, Stay Classy, and Be Original.”
