In the summer of 2019, deep in the warehouse shadows of South Texas, a handful of music-obsessed friends gathered in the back room after a late-night show. They were sick of seeing the same bland “scene” apparel recycled every season — and they decided to do something different. From that raw energy, Forbidden Alchemy was born.

Our first hoodie design was sketched on a torn notebook page, printed in a garage with heavy-weight blank blanks, and handed out on the floor of a mosh-pit. We saw the demand for real gear that could withstand the stage lights, the offtime grind, the road. We knew that for someone who lives for the riff, the break and the underground, the clothes shouldn’t just be placeholders — they should endure, and they should speak.

Today, our mission is simple: build apparel for those who reject the ordinary and live by their own rules. We design heavy-weight hoodies, unisex tees, women’s cuts and men’s joggers — each one intentionally crafted with rugged fabrics, durable prints, and graphics rooted in metal-core culture. We don’t chase trends. We respect them, we feed them, but we answer to no one but the scene.

From our Texas warehouse to worldwide shipping, we stand with the outcasts, the mosh-pit regulars, the fans of breakdowns and blast beats. We’re here for the artists, the stage-creeps, the road warriors. Every piece you wear from Forbidden Alchemy is a badge of resistance: you won’t fade into the background.

Be Different.
