Hellstar
Hellstar is a Los Angeles-based streetwear brand founded in 2020 by Sean Holland (also Seanie) and Joseph "Juice" Pendleton. The brand's aesthetic draws on gothic imagery, biblical motifs, and cosmic themes — rendered in premium heavyweight blanks with bold graphic treatments. Its identity sits at the intersection of underground streetwear and spiritual iconography, giving it a visual distinctiveness that separates it from the cleaner, logo-driven brands that dominate the Los Angeles market. Hellstar built its following primarily through social media and limited drops, and its association with artists and figures in the hip-hop and streetwear communities helped accelerate its visibility. The brand's been exposed to an even larger audience in recent years through an ongoing collaborative partnership with Adidas.
