SAFE HAVEN

In 2019, Jose Hernandez, Luis Castro, and Diego Lazo co-founded Safe Haven, a clothing brand with a heartfelt mission. Jose leads the design process, crafting rough sketches and managing the inventory, Luis handles the finances, and Diego jumps in everywhere. The three emphasize that the brand is simply a group of friends passionate about creating streetwear for everyone.

Community lies at the heart of Safe Haven's endeavors. From hosting vibrant local events to collaborating with fellow Manassas brands during pop-ups, they aim to foster a sense of togetherness. 

Their recent successful soccer tournament brought together individuals from across Virginia and other states, highlighting the brand's commitment to building connections beyond their local roots.

Reflecting on their initial success, Safe Haven's debut collection, "Duality," featuring the popular "Second Chance" and "Mirror" tee shirts, sold out rapidly, garnering widespread appreciation. The overwhelming support from the community fueled their determination to continue crafting unique and inspiring apparel.

Diego emphasizes their long-term vision, aspiring for Safe Haven to attain a widespread presence while remaining rooted in their local community. The team is dedicated to spreading positivity and love in a world often clouded by negativity, striving to create a sense of unity among their followers.

Looking to the future, Jose aims to refine their creative process, constantly seeking to impress with each new release. Their enthusiasm is palpable as they express their unwavering commitment to hone in on creativity, always eager to present fresh and innovative products.

Safe Haven is expecting an array of exciting new offerings, from community events to stylish winter hoodies and accessories, as they continue to carve their unique path, guided by the belief that the possibilities are truly endless.
