"NEVER COMPROMISE WITH IMAGINATION OR QUALITY"
- VON DUTCH
The Brand
Meaning "stubborn as a Dutchman", Von Dutch was the nickname of legendary artist Kenneth Howard - a man who will always be credited for his talent, skill and originality. Von Dutch is not about the VIP anymore, but about the rest of us who value craftsmanship and creativity. Today, every product that bears the Von Dutch name embodies the bold and uniquely artistic feeling that made Kenneth Howard an icon.
As the godfather of the "kustom kulture", Kenneth Howard was a forward thinker uninterested in what other people thought. What he did care about were his passions. Much of the content on this site has been provided by individuals who are passionate about keeping Kenneth Howard's artwork and legacy alive. Royer Brands International would like to thank Virginia Reyes, Temma Willey and Tornado Design for the use of their photos...
Our Future
Purchased by Royer Brands International S.à.r.l. (a division of Groupe Royer S.A.) in 2009, the Von Dutch brand has finally returned to its roots. Kenneth 'Von Dutch' Howard inspired a generation with his rock & roll spirit, and his artwork and imagination continue to serve as the foundation for the Von Dutch brand.
Von Dutch is a growing, global family of distributors and partners that currently includes the Philippines (L.A. Kustom), Thailand (L.M.E.) and Brazil (Magic). For more information, please contact us at info@vondutch.com.
