MODAVIVAS was founded in Florida in 2009 by Ryan O’Connor, who established the humble beginnings of the brand by screenprinting T-shirts for his close friends. MODAVIVAS’s emergence into the worlds of skateboarding and streetwear is in part thanks to the brand’s feline mascot Lord Nermal. Now based in Los Angeles, with a flagship space on Fairfax, MODAVIVAS has opened further doors in Tokyo, Mexico City, Hamburg Germany, and Sao Paulo Brazil.
