We are known for our world famous super cute crazyheads® Panda Hoodies and our crazyheads® Artist Series apparel. The clothing features designs from talented artists around the world in today’s pop art gallery scene.
Punch Brand started producing anime inspired fleece hats known as “crazyheads” in early 2005. The hats were mainly sold at anime conventions and were designed for cosplayers and the otakus looking for accessories to complete their outfits. At that time, the line consisted of only 5 hats - black cat, white bunny, black bunny, panda and brown bear which still are our top selling styles today.
Since then, Punch Brand expanded the product line to include cute animal ear hoodies, smitts (an original 2 in 1 scarf and mitt combo), more hat styles, wallets, t-shirts, pins/keychains and of course the collaboration with artist/painter Camilla d'Errico to produce a line of limited edition crazyheads® Artist Series hats and hoodies that was launched in May 2008. Our other collaborations include Meomi (CAN), Skaffs (AUS) and Momorobo (CN).
An independently owned company, Punch Brand was founded by designer Glynis Tao, while studying for her Degree at Ryerson University. She is a highly motivated professional with more than 10 years of progressive and diverse experience in the apparel industry, with expertise in: Product Development, Apparel Merchandising, Technical Design, Production/ Purchasing and Marketing. She has worked at many local and international companies including Club Monaco, Dollhouse (US), Magtague (HK), HBC and Reebok (CAN).
Thanks to the support of a growing fan base around the world, Punch Brand and the crazyheads® brand continues to evolve and grow as a Lifestyle Brand. We constantly strive to innovate to produce only the best products for our fans. Our philosophy is to meld popular culture and fashion- drawing inspiration from all things cute (kawaii!!). It is called wearable art.
