Brand spotlight: Rich spirit

From Football to Fashion: How Maris Built a Brand with Purpose

When Maris stepped away from college football, he wasn’t done grinding—he just found a new way to run it up. What started as messing with fits and sketching ideas turned into RICHSPIRIT—a streetwear brand built on real-life hustle, confidence, and culture.

“Honestly, my journey started from a pure passion for fashion and a little bit of rebellion,” says Maris.

“I’ve always loved mixing styles, pushing boundaries, and creating looks that tell a story.”

He started in his room, designing on his iPad and posting drops on socials. The love was instant. RICHSPIRIT started moving.

But it’s more than just clothes.

“RICHSPIRIT is a lifestyle. It’s about turning struggle into strength and staying true to where you come from.”

Maris pulls inspiration from his roots, his community, music, art, and everyday life. His pieces reflect the grind and energy of the culture—bold, resilient, and real.

“Inspiration is everywhere. I observe how people express themselves through what they wear. That’s where the ideas come from.”

And the mission?

“I want you to feel rich in spirit—confident, bold, unstoppable. It doesn’t matter what’s in your pockets.”

Now, Maris has his sights set on the future: exclusive artist collaborations, visuals , and storytelling through his apparel.

“I see RICHSPIRIT becoming a global movement. This is just the beginning.”

Needless to say if you’re wearing RICHSPIRIT, you’re already winning.
