About Us

Founded in 2013 by Michael, Stephen, and Nicholas, State Forty Eight was created from a shared passion for Arizona and a belief that where you're from matters.

What started as a small apparel brand has grown into a one-stop creative and merchandise partner, helping businesses, nonprofits, schools, and organizations bring their ideas to life through retail products, custom merchandise, screen-printing, embroidery, design services, and more.

Staying true to its tagline, "Clothing for All, Inspired by Arizona," State Forty Eight creates products that celebrate home, community, and the stories that connect us.

In 2020, the company launched the State Forty Eight Foundation to support entrepreneurs through free educational events, meaningful connections, and grant funding designed to help fuel Arizona dreams.

Above all, State Forty Eight exists to bring people together, create opportunities for others, and lead with love. While Arizona will always be home, the mission is to build something that inspires pride and connection wherever life takes you.
