THE STORY OF CLUB COSMO'S"

ESTABLISHED

AUGUST 4TH, 2023

Club Cosmo’s is better interpreted as a project rather than a clothing brand. It is about the human experience and seeing life in a different perspective: chasing opportunity and learning and loving all while intrinsically promoting a brighter, kinder world. We believe it is not our clothes that will change the world, but the people wearing them that will.

We are set on our firm belief that kindness, positivity, and optimism are the foundation to building a better world. Our goal is to build a world where creativity is unbounded, pursuing one's passions is encouraged, and where each person's influence has a positive impact on the world. We are committed to upholding these ideals, igniting a mass movement that resonates through space and time. By continuing to encourage this culture of unity, we enable each other to become influential beacons of hope, radiating the compassion to uplift others.

Everyone who supports Club Cosmo’s is on a mission to spread the message that while the future may be filled with uncertainty, it is also filled with infinite and hopeful potential. Supporting Club Cosmo's means lighting the way for others to dream big, to live boldly, and to find the joy in life while you are here. Together, we celebrate the journey of growth and resilience, creating ripples of positive change that extend far beyond ourselves.

A DRIVING FORCE OF GOOD

Club Cosmo’s is a co-founded brand developed within the Inland Empire with its cultural identity based in Los Angeles. We are built on positivity, creativity, talent, and full inclusivity.

Created to inspire connection and real impact, everything we do is designed to spark conversation, drive change, and bring people together through artistry, community, and storytelling.

Since mid 2024, Club Cosmo’s has been independently led by Matthew Neo Liwanag, who proudly continues to carry forward the brand's vision with passion and purpose. Under his guidance, the brand has grown into more than just apparel, but rather a persisting movement dedicated to lighting the way for others to dream fearlessly, live intentionally, and spread optimism in every corner of life.

Even though spreading positivity can be difficult when you're in a place where negativity creeps in more often than not, positive energy is important to always be working towards!

CONTENT DIRECTOR

My favorite thing about the Club Cosmo's community is that everyone brings authentic energy and good vibes. As simple and cliché as that may come off, it truly is something that does not come easy. I think the selflessness combined with prioritizing the company of each other over self serving wants, is what makes Club Cosmo's so special. All the individuals I've met so far within this community has been nothing but good energy.
