Ed Hardy is a famous American brand which is born with the joint talent of the famous brand designer Christian Audigier and Don Ed Hardy.

When the tattoo Godfather met the Jeans genius, the cooperation of two masters has redefined the “Street Fashion”. Therefore, a new brand, being replete with American spirit, was given birth in 2005.

The products are based on T-shirt, zipper jackets, Jeans and other casual clothing while shoes and silver jewelry as accessories. Then he melted the excellent tattoo patterns of Don Ed Hardy thus the collection is naturally named Ed Hardy. Some embroidery, washing, splash-ink and other techniques are often used in Ed Hardy clothing to create a feeling of decadence erosion. A series of clothes are produced by combing the tattoo patterns created by the master as Eagle, tiger, skeletons, demons, daggers and nude, etc. Besides, some patterns with strong oriental taste like the carp, a dragon and the tiger totem, the tiger dogs and squirrels, are belonging to a relatively new breed of cartoon creation.
