About Us / Values
Ben Fahey - Chambers CEO
"After creating and running the skate shop I wanted to make a brand that wasn't just tied to skating but had an infusion of my own fashion interests and the skate culture I'm part of.
A lot of the clothing style and designs that we have created has been made with our customers in mind. I'm from Stockport, stocky born and bred, Bredbury head and I ain't ever seen my area and the area of my mates on a tee, let alone rockin a brand that was made in Stockport by a stockport lad.
So a lot of the thought behind the brand was - lets make some styles and items that people in the area want to wear. We always try to regularly bring out new ideas and designs and often put it to the people in the shop and insta and let them decide. They are the ones buying so they might as well have an input which I think is a great way of interaction between the brand and our customers.
I also understand that not everyone in the area can afford expensive stuff so I try real hard to have products of a certain cost and quality so we dont alienate our customers. We don't always get it right be we are learning and refining constantly until we find the right balance that everyone is happy with."
