A2M USA? combines the sophistication and subtlety of European designer clothing with the casual hipness of America. All of our A2M brand clothing is made in the U.S.A. with the best quality fabrics and workmanship. We knew our designs were great, but having our clothing manufactured halfway around the world was not giving us the quality we demanded. That's when we moved our entire operation from Europe to America. Now we have all of our suppliers and manufacturing in L.A., New York and San Francisco, where we can maintain tight control over the quality of our product, and that makes all the difference.
Out of Africa, Into Europe, Back in the U.S.A.
A2M USA? was founded by an African-born German entrepreneur with a genius for merging the diverse fashions of Europe, Africa and America to create a unique line of streetwear for young guys and girls. Felix Echipue made a name for himself in Europe with a Euro-African take on an American look. The youth of Europe went crazy for the stuff, and now he's brought his styles to America, where they feel right at home.
Felix was one of 8 kids, a product of a loving family from a small village in West Africa. At an early age he discovered in himself a love for fashion and an eye for uniqueness. Deciding to expand his knowledge of people and fashion he relocated to Germany, where he became fascinated with the styles of Europe. In 1997 he founded a small clothing boutique in Munich, where he created a new brand that merged African and European influences.
Blowing Up
Before long the one store turned into five, and Felix was traveling to the capitals of Europe and the world, building relationships in the fashion world and acquiring new accounts for his apparel line. This was the late ?90s, and hip hop styles were extremely popular in Europe. Felix partnered with Johnny Blaze Clothing, rap star Snoop Dogg to form the Snoop Dogg Clothing line in Germany and later brought rap mega-millionaire Master P over to Europe to start his brand of original hip hop styles, Respect.
What's in a Name?
In 2012, after 20 years of success with American styles in Europe, Felix and his team of talented young designers created an all-new line of cool and youthful streetwear, all made right here in the U.S.A., designed with the kids of America in mind. A2M USA? is a gift from Felix to his children, Angel, Melody and Miracle, who inspired the youthful spirit of his designs. It's his way of passing on what his parents instilled in him: to value life, strive for the best and never give up.

The following is a reply from A2M USA to our question – "Are your products Made in the USA?"
How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.
We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.
To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.
What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.
Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
