Up and coming: Clutch

Basketball stars have always been big fans of fashion and, in particular, streetwear. Now they have something new to wear.

Clutch, a young brand in the world of streetwear and relatively unknown with just over 1,000 likes on their Facebook page, has attracted the attention of some ballers like the Washington Wizards' Austin Rivers, LA Clippers' Sindarius Thornwell and LA Laker's Josh Hart.

The name 'Clutch' makes reference to a basketball term when a player hits a game winning shot with the clock running down.

And rather cleverly, there is now a streetwear brand named after that term.

Whilst the clothing is affordable, one of the big reasons why Clutch appeals to many people is because of the current campaign they have: 'Shoot Hoops Not Guns'.

This campaign was set up following the school shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in February 2018 and aimed to raise money for the fund that was set up after the tragedy.

Clutch has been set up by basketball lovers for basketball lovers.

Items range from $15 to $45 and below is a gallery of some of their pieces.
