About KAØS & Co.

KAØS & Company is an independent design house founded by Ryan Kendall in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Through streetwear, custom Atelier commissions, and jewelry, we create pieces with character, purpose, and attention to detail.

Our work draws from Milwaukee’s industrial roots, the energy of music, and the freedom of personal expression. Strong silhouettes, layered materials, and distinctive stitching give each design its own identity.

BORN FROM DISORDER. FORGED UNDER FIRE.

“Born From Disorder” is personal. It comes from Ryan’s experience living with ADHD and several other mental health diagnoses, and learning to give his ideas, intensity, and restless energy a creative direction.

In 2019, a severe injury changed the course of his life. Recovery meant learning to walk again and rebuilding his sense of direction. “Forged Under Fire” speaks to the determination that process demanded.

Design became a place to bring those experiences together—to find focus, work with his hands, and turn ideas into something tangible.

That experience became the foundation of KAØS & Company. “Born From Disorder. Forged Under Fire.” comes from the life behind the work.

THE WORK

We care about how a piece feels, how it fits, and how it holds together. The details matter: the weight of the fabric, the placement of an appliqué, the stitching, and the finish inside the garment.

Our offerings include made-to-order streetwear, small releases, and individual commissions through KAØS & Company Atelier. Each gives us a different way to explore materials and create something worth wearing.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Clothing should feel like an extension of the person wearing it. We value individuality, craftsmanship, and the character that comes from making deliberate choices.

We’re building KAØS & Company with patience and conviction—one piece, one relationship, and one earned opportunity at a time.
