OUR STORY

Our names are Ant & Matt and we are the founders of Bad Product LLC. Started in 2016 as two seniors in High School we were inseparable best friends, but it wasn’t always this way. Years prior we had a strong dislike for one another primarily rooted in evident differences, friend groups & lifestyle factors. It wasn’t until Matt moved homes and became within walking distance of Ant that we began to become friendly. The true spark occurred when we began to realize despite our obvious differences that kept us apart, we had parallel values (Optimism, Personal Development, Mental Health, Empathy), beliefs (Spirituality, Universal Intelligence) issues (Financial, Mental Illness) and goals. While subconscious at the time, this is what drew us together and kept us such close friends and now business partners for so many years, and more to come despite initial years of assumed judgements.

Junior & Senior year of HS we were, in simplest terms obnoxiously good friends. By that we mean we truly valued and appreciated having one another in our lives, and didn’t really care about what others had to say about it. Not partaking in normal HS shenanigans (partying, etc.) we simply found the joy in doing things that we valued. (Photoshoots, exercising, walks, etc.) There were MANY points others’ gave us the side eye because we were so different from the rest and un-phased by it. However the longer we didn’t care and did what made us happy, the more individuals began to gravitate towards us.

Over the years, not only within the brand, but within life we have helped one another grow and blossom into the individuals we are today. If not for releasing judgement and embracing connection, we would likely not have unlocked our fullest potential for a much longer time frame.

About Matt

I was born with an innate musicality and a passion for style, my artist name (Sauce.Babyyy). I discovered my love for music and clothing at a young age. Drawing inspiration from diverse genres such as hip-hop, R&B, and soul, and drawing graphic images on friends/acquaintances clothing, I have grown to develop a distinctive sound that seamlessly blends melodic hooks with introspective storytelling. As well as a sharp eye for graphic design and art.

ABOUT ANT

I hold a teaching degree and still in school to become a mental health therapist, and continue to set no limit on growth and trying new things. The only business background being a couple classes within High School. However my open mindedness and willingness to try different things has truly allowed me to embrace owning a brand. I truly enjoy spreading my beliefs, values and knowledge through a creative outlet that is clothing.
