Our Story
Hello allow us to introduce ourselves, our names are Garrett Reese and Max Deering, the founders of Polarize. Our journey started on the football field, where we won three state championships together. After securing our third and final title in our senior year, we knew we had to chase something bigger. With Garrett committed to Indiana University on a full-ride scholarship and Max looking for somthing new, we decided it was time to figure out how to build something of our own.
At first, the goal was simple-get rich. Garrett explored different business ideas, but nothing sparked real passion. Then, after a conversation with his brother who had already owned a clothing brand, the idea of starting our own was born. He pitched it to Max and he took the risk, from that moment, we were all in.
It wasn’t easy-after countless trial-and-error designs, we finally created our first t-shirt within just two days of launching Polarize. That was when we realized this wasn’t just about making money; it was something we truly loved. Designing clothes became our obsession, and we dedicated ourselves to creating high-quality, unique pieces.
We searched for the right manufacturer, refined our vision, and built Polarize from the ground up. Now, it’s no longer about the money-it’s about the passion, the creativity, and the journey. What started as an idea between two best friends has become something bigger.
Welcome to Polarize.
