Why We Started Courtside Brand...Basketball...Streetwear...Community

Why We Started Courtside Brand...Basketball...Streetwear...Community

We didn’t start Courtside brand just to “sell basketball shorts.” We started it because basketball is our passion and streetwear is how we show that passion as a community.

Today, the court is more than just a place to hoop. It’s therapy. It’s where we feel like we belong. It’s our stage. It’s where we learn how to take a hit and get back up. How to read people. How to lock in. How to stay consistent when life gets tough. You’re not just playing for buckets. You’re playing for respect.

But off the court, who are we? We’ve always loved style. But let’s be real: we’ve been limited in how we express that love through basketball culture. We wear Nike, NBA jerseys and obsess over our kicks, because that’s all part of the story. That’s part of being a hooper. But isn't there more? 

Courtside isn’t about chasing trends or doing what’s been done. It’s about creating something new, for us. Because style isn’t just about what you wear. It’s how you carry yourself. Your energy. Who you are. This isn’t about hype. It’s about heart. Our designs express that heart and passion.

We Built This From the Ground Up

No investors. No shortcuts. No major label backing us. Just late nights, early mornings, and a vision that refused to fade.

We sold our first tees out the back of a burger joint while shooting hoops with the community.

Every collection is a chapter. Every graphic holds a memory.
Every drop is a love letter to the game and the people who play it.

What’s Next?

We’re not here to scale fast or chase clout.
We’re here to build a legacy, slow, solid, and consistent.

Connecting with community and events that showcase grassroots talent is what it's all about. The Gauntlet 3x3 street event in Prahran, Melbourne was a lite quest entry to the world FIBA 3x3 stage. Off the back of local Summer Jam streetball competition, Mitch Mang & Egal commentated the Courtside sponsored event where we collaborated with local baller to design a shirt for the inaugral event. 

So if you’re rocking with us, know this:
You’re not just wearing a brand.
You’re repping a movement.

One born out in the cul de sac, shooting on dodgy hoops, sharpened by sweat, and fuelled by belief and love for the game.

See you on the court.
H. Walker, Courtside
