NAV-C isn't just a brand; it's a movement. It's a testament to the belief that the extraordinary lies within each of us, waiting to be unleashed. Founded by Randy Richard Morales, NAV-C reflects his own journey – From serving in the US Navy to a cross-country move to Los Angeles to pursue his dreams, from starting college at 27 to landing his first industry job as a designer at Alo, to being recruited as Head Designer at Cuts Clothing, and now, in his late 30s, moving to New York City to explore the intersection of art, fashion, and tech, Randy's life is a living embodiment of the "Not an Average Citizen" spirit.
This vision, however, isn't a solo endeavor. NAV-C's foundation is built and Partnered upon the tireless dedication and expertise of a team based in Hong Kong. Their hard work and unwavering commitment have been instrumental in bringing the brand to life, transforming a dream into a tangible reality. Together, we are crafting a brand that not only inspires our community to strive for betterment but also serves as a platform for collaboration. We aim to showcase the incredible work of fellow NAV-C community members, highlighting their unique journeys and celebrating their contributions to a world that dares to be different.
NAV-C is built upon 11 core principles, a code for those who dare to defy the status quo:
- Fuck Around and Find Out: (If you never try, you will never know. Every experience, good or bad, unlocks a new path to potential, as long as you take the steps.)
- Conquer Your Mind: (Don't let your thoughts create fear or doubt. Use your thoughts to fuel your fight for what you believe in.)
- Take Care of Your Temple: (If you can't function, you can't perform. Prioritize your well-being to achieve your goals.)
- Know Your Worth: (You are worthy of anything you set your mind to.)
- Be Outside: (Light can't shine in the dark. Be visible, connect with the world.)
- Community is Key: (Be like a virus and spread into the community. You are stronger together.)
- Word is Bond: (Trust is earned through integrity. Honor your commitments.)
- Growth Never Stops: (Knowledge is power, regardless of age. Embrace lifelong learning.)
- Be Invincibly Vulnerable: (Like a Trojan Horse, use vulnerability as a strength, a point of connection.)
- Lead With Love: (Compassion and empathy are the foundations of true leadership.)
- Change the World: (Dare to dream big and leave your mark on the world.)
These principles aren't just words; they're the DNA of NAV-C. They inspire every design, every collection, every message we create. We're not just selling clothes; we're building a community of individuals who refuse to be defined, who embrace their unique path, and who strive to make a difference.
Join the movement. Be Not an Average Citizen.
