About - Select Authentic

Select is an American fashion-forward streetwear clothing brand for men and women founded by Kirk Beddoe.

“I’ve had a passion for clothing and design throughout my life. I hadn’t considered it as a career until I experienced a personal revelation. It all began when I ordered a sweatshirt from a well-known company. I ended up paying $130; hardly cheap for a sweatshirt. I didn’t mind the price, assuming it would be extremely comfortable and of high quality. After waiting for a few weeks, the sweatshirt finally arrived. As soon as I took it out of the box, I was blown away at how poor the quality was. You may think of this as an exaggeration, but let me tell you – it did not live up to the expectations set out by the cost. For $130, I expected way more than what I received. This ultimately inspired me to create my own clothing brand that revolves around three principals: great comfort, modern style and affordability. Thus, Select Authentic was born.” – Kirk Beddoe
