OFUR family! A lot has happened in the lead-up to this first collection the official debut of OFUR. In fact, OFUR wouldn’t have existed if it weren’t for what happened to us. The name OFUR was born from the challenges we faced with our previous brand name and the legal battle we encountered when another company threatened to sue us over a name infringement.
A Short Reminder
For those who may have missed it: In 2023, we received a letter from a major retail brand regarding a trademark conflict with our old brand name. After countless discussions, legal paperwork, expenses, and many sleepless nights, reality hit us hard we simply didn’t have the resources to match their legal firepower. After eight years, Four by Four Clothing had to come to an end.
In the months leading up to our debut collection release, we worked day and night, pouring everything we had learned and all the passion we carried into this rebirth. With the support of both old and new friends, we were determined to come back bigger, better, and stronger.
The Launch of the Debut OFUR Collection
When choosing a name for our debut collection, we wanted it to reflect our story. It had to embody resilience, perseverance, and the idea of emerging stronger after setbacks. Call it a “silver lining after the storm.” Everyone faces challenges, but the key is how you rise above them and grow from the struggle.
For us, the choice was clear, it had to remind us that nothing comes easy. Without friction, there is no shine. Hard work and passion are what drive you forward. And so, the collection name “Overcome All, Rise Beyond” was born. The collection consists of two drops: the first launched on April 14, 2024, and the second on June 6, 2024.
The Inspiration
One thing was certain in establishing OFUR’s first collection: the element of perseverance had to be the guiding theme. A challenge we were forced to face a year ago, but from the very first moment, it became clear that we couldn’t sustain it due to financial shortcomings. This has resulted in several designs within the collection that symbolize this journey. Additionally, the color palette is derived from the brand colors we use at OFUR. These can be found in our OFUR brand book.
Premium Materials, Bold Statements
Our Release Collection combined signature OFUR pieces, intricate details, and a commitment to comfort. We had the goal to release full outfits, ensuring each piece could seamlessly complement one another. We also focused on improving the collection with thoughtful details, like branded buttons, to elevate the overall look and feel. Not only did we feature bold designs, but we also introduced clean, minimalistic pieces that captured the essence of simplicity. A major milestone was the development of our own OFUR fit, designed to deliver the perfect balance of comfort and style. Here’s what dropped this spring:
Varsity Jackets
OFUR – FIRE PUNCH VARSITY JACKET (Shell: 80% Wool / 20% Nylon, Lining & Filler: 100% Polyester, Sleeve: Leather)
This heavyweight varsity jacket is made of wool combined with leather sleeves. The OFUR logo is embroidered on the left side of the chest and the left sleeve. The back of this varsity jacket is adorned with the “Fire Punch” chenille patch. Every battle has its limits. Managing your energy and knowing when to stop is a sign of self-reflection. The maximum number of blows we could deliver during our battle over the name infringement was symbolized by the fire matchbox. Every blow felt heavy and could feel like our last one. A journey of hope and fear.

A fight that didn’t feel fair but had to be fought nonetheless. One that made us who we are today.
