Akomplice Bio


Akomplice is a contemporary art movement, often expressed through the medium of apparel. Known for their collaborations, and respected for their philosophical, social, and political messages, the brand’s ethos is akin to those of Kendrick Lamar and Chance The Rapper. 

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 fourteen years, and Akomplice is a pillar within the street-wear industry while preserving the curiosity and passion they had from day one. Akomplice boasts collaborations with iconic figures, brands, and media outlets including ASICS, Fred Segal, FILA, Joey Bada$$, GRiZ, Wale, Ride Snowboards, MF Doom, Umbro, Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon, J Dilla, Rickey Powell, Synchrodogs, David Flores and Vernon Davis. Mike and Patrick have also been commissioned for design by Nike’s lifestyle arm, Nike Sportswear, on multiple occasions.

Akomplice is currently sold in boutiques all over the world. 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.
