How to start a clothing line no fear


Clothing

No Fear T-shirts were very popular from the mid-1990s to early-2000s, peculiarly not having been endorsed by any celebrities. Shirts typically featured existential slogans or quotes that touted the virtues of extreme sports. Common themes included fear of death, lack of laziness, contempt for social norms, and the law.

No Fear Energy Drink

No Fear began distributing a No Fear Energy drink through partnership with SoBe. Flavors and versions currently consist of:

  • Original (grapefruit)
  • Sugar Free
  • Motherload (berry)
  • Bloodshot (orange/dragonfruit)
  • No Fear is the official energy drink of the World Extreme Cagefighting, and sponsors fighter Urijah Faber.

    In Europe, they are making a different variety called Extreme Energy in partnership with UK based Aimia Foods.

    Promotion

    No Fear began a promotion in 2009 to earn No Fear "cred" by entering codes found under the tab of the cans. Participants can use points earned to acquire No Fear Gear. Grand Prizes include admission to:

  • Mixed Martial Arts event
  • Motocross event
  • Surfing trip to Hawaii
  • Concert tour with Lamb of God.
  • On February 12, 2008, World Extreme Cagefighting announced that the No Fear Energy Drink brand had entered a deal with the WEC as the promotion's official presenting sponsor and exclusive energy drink sponsor. The partnership was begun with an event that took place in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the next day.

    No Fear has a sponsor for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series with NASCAR driver Boris Said. It has also sponsored Team Pacquiao on many occasions.
