Ed Hardy Clothing originated in 2002 when Ku USA, inc. approached Don Ed Hardy about using his tattoo inspired designs to create Ed Hardy clothes based on his art style. Ku USA and Ed Hardy formed Hardy Life, LLC which owns the trademark ownership as well as all the rights to all of the images. The company was then approached by Christian Audigier, of previous Von Dutch fame, who decided to take Ed Hardy design to a new level in high fashion. They marketed the Ed Hardy clothing line to high profile celebrities, set up shops in ritzy fashion districts, and to date have 14 stores worldwide. Ed Hardy found much of his inspiration in Japanese tattoo design and you can see the influence in the unique designs of Ed Hardy hats, shirts, jeans, and cool accessories.
