Starting a Brand Off An Instagram Page | Portland Gear
In 2012, Marcus Harvey was fresh out of college and excited to make his mark on the city. His knowledge in digital arts and business allowed him to make connections within the city, eventually leading to the creation of the iconic “P” logo seen all over the city today. Launching on his Instagram page @Portland to over 320k followers on Black Friday in 2014, Harvey announced the release of two t-shirts under the brand name of Portland Gear. After receiving an unprecedented amount of orders, Harvey has never looked back, continuing to push himself and his team to create products that people love wearing and sharing, and building a community around this city and its amazing people.
Five years later, the brand has expanded their ventures to two new locations - a pop-up in Beaverton's Washington Square Mall, and a deditcated hat shop in Union Way accross from Powell's Books on Burnside.
