Publik Trust

THE MARK OF THE EAST The concept of Publik Trust relates back to the origins of government and its seminal idea that within the “Publik” lies the true power and future of a society. These elements are expressed through our highest quality garments, inspired by a global community rich in history and culture. Two industry veterans, Demetrius Tatum and Shawn Solomon, founded Publik Trust in 2012. Both have over 15 years experience in the field, playing a combined major role in creating the Jordan brand at Nike and working with various names like Rocawear, New Balance and Parish. Demetrius also oversees The Preview trade show in Atlanta and was a fashion advisor to artist Young Jeezy in recent years. “The Publik Trust customer is fashion forward, hip and cool,” describes Tatum. “When everyone zigs, he zags.
