Nate Spiteri - The Australian designer chasing his dreams in London
For this episode we were joined by Nate Spiteri, Founder of streetwear brand Three Thousand Clothing.
Hailing from Melbourne Australia, Nate had always been a streetwear enthusiast. Growing up he gravitated towards brands like Stussy and Supreme and it's this love that led to him starting his first brand with two of his childhood friends whilst at university. Nate himself admits that they didn't really know what they were doing at first but still managed to turn over $10,000 Australian dollars in sales which is very impressive considering the fact that the Melbourne streetwear scene was small and definitely not as prominent as the likes of New York and London.
Although Nates first brand eventually came to an end, it is here where Nate discovered how much he truly wanted to be successful in fashion. Enter Three Thousand Clothing! Nate decide to leave Melbourne and head over to London to build the brand as he felt this would be easier due to the vibrance and opportunity within the UK streetwear scene. Nate has definitely done just that, however it has not come without its challenges.
Throughout the episode Nate candidly shares what it has been liking trying to build a streetwear brand in a city that he is 'new' to. Did London live up to his expectations? How did he make connections? Were people as willing to help as he thought they'd be? Was the decision to leave Melbourne worth it? Listen now to hear Nate answer all these questions and more!
Throughout the conversation Nate shares the many keys he has picked up from building a brand from scratch in London. His perspective on brand building is very interesting and definitely one I am grateful to have heard.
Since recording Nate has just launched his 'Dream Chaser' collection! The work tells the story of Nate's decision to leave Melbourne to purse his own dream and references the skills needed to do so as well as referencing his experiences in London.
