Akomplice Bio
Mike and Patrick Liberty conceived Akomplice at the young ages of 18 and 20. Hailing from Colorado, without any industry-specific education, the two brothers embarked on their first collection with nine of their initial thirteen illustrator designs. Fast-forward eleven years, and Akomplice is a pillar within the street-wear industry while preserving the curiosity and passion that had from day one. Akomplice boasts collaborations with iconic figures, brands, and media outlets including ASICS, Fred Segal, Joey Bada$$, Ride Snowboards, MF Doom, Sneaker Freaker, Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon, J Dilla,, Frank 151, and Vernon Davis of the 49er's. Mike and Patrick have also been commissioned for design by Nike’s lifestyle arm, Nike Sportswear on multiple occasions.
Akomplice is currently sold in 33 countries, and carried in over 250 stores across the globe. Mike and Patrick have created an industry indispensable with Akomplice through thought provoking graphics, and calculated material choices that gain sophistication with each season. Though they’ve enjoyed swift and strategic growth, Mike and Patrick have maintained the ethos of “evolution through innovation” which is apparent within each collaboration, and garment produced.
