#SupportBlackBusinessPDX - Stackin Kickz Clothing

This week, we’re telling the stories of some Black-owned businesses in the Rose City. This is one of a series of Support Black Business segments in the coming weeks and months. Led by hip-hop legend Cool Nutz, our production crew spent time in Portland visiting local staples.

“I wanted to create a great alternative to collecting shoes,” Stackin Kickz founder David Jefferson said. “I wanted to make my contribution to the culture and be honest with who I am and what I believe in.”

At Stackin Kickz, we spoke with founder David Jefferson who started the brand thirteen years ago from the trunk of his car and opened the store in the Lloyd Center Mall in January. Jefferson’s intention was to embrace the streetwear culture in Portland and create a brand which echoed his personality.

Jefferson’s inventory features hats, tracksuits, sneakers, tee shirts and more.

“Everything related to streetwear, anything you can throw some kicks on with, we have,” Jefferson said. “There’s a lot of streetwear brands out there, and I think mine just hits you right in the heart because I understand the community and the spiritual aspects of being a business owner.”

Check out the video above to learn more about Stackin Kickz and hear from founder David Jefferson, and stay tuned for more segments all week from Portland.

You can visit Stackin Kickz online here, and at the Lloyd Center Mall in Portland.
