Boys Own Mens

In the space of twelve issues, the Boy’s Own fanzine established a cult following throughout the ‘80s. Now, the homemade publication has expanded into the digital arena and released clothing inspired by its print heritage. Boy’s Own was launched by Terry Farley, Cymon Eckel, Andrew Weatherall and Steve Mayes — quickly becoming the voice of the acid house movement and shifts in Britain’s youth culture. It’s also the home of the first article on acid house by Paul Oakenfold, and held the first documented outdoor acid rave in 1988. According to Farley, this multidisciplinary labour of love only stopped when “it was really good”, but its legacy is far from forgotten.

At END., you’ll find Boy’s Own men's pieces celebrating the legends of British club music and the irreverent spirit of its founders. Boys Own t-shirts remain the brand’s bread and butter, with graphic prints inspired by the OG fanzine.
