About RAWSTATE
RAWSTATE was born from a personal conviction:
that the world needs more depth, more consciousness, and more true values.
In a time when everything is made faster, more superficial, and simpler, we consciously choose the opposite.
We believe that people today too often choose comfort without meaning, while precisely there, strength is lost.
RAWSTATE wants to change that.
We don't create ordinary streetwear.
We create clothing with a message.
Every hoodie represents an idea, a conviction, or a truth that goes beyond the visible.
Quotes that you not only wear, but also embody.
Not to conform, but to show what you stand for.
Our mission is simple, yet powerful:
to create mindset and spread wisdom through something everyone wears daily.
Streetwear is everywhere today.
But RAWSTATE gives it meaning.
It is a combination of:
- comfort
- minimalist design
- a deeper message
Not just clothing, but an extension of your identity.
RAWSTATE is for people who:
- want to live consciously
- follow their own path
- value what truly matters
This is not a trend.
This is a statement.
Wear your mindset.
The face of Rawstate
Founder Story – Jeroen Vangeffelen
At the age of 22, Jeroen Vangeffelen chose not to just go with the flow, but to reflect on what is truly missing in today's world.
After reading numerous books, observing human behavior, and gaining diverse experiences with different types of people, one conviction grew stronger:
there is a need for more depth, more awareness, and more true value.
Where superficiality is increasingly becoming the norm, he deliberately chooses the opposite.
RAWSTATE is the result of that.
Driven by a strong interest in philosophy, creativity, and personal development, Jeroen saw an opportunity to create something that goes beyond clothing.
A way to make ideas, insights, and beliefs visible and to spread them.
Not in a forced way, but in an accessible, almost subtle way.
A "good-humored and reasoned virus" that spreads through people themselves.
For him, RAWSTATE is the perfect combination of his strengths:
- inspiring people
- encouraging reflection
- creatively building something meaningful
The goal is not to change people,
but to make them pause.
To make them choose.
To make them grow.
And the best part about it?
Everyone can be a part of this.
Everyone contributes in their own way to something bigger.
RAWSTATE is not a brand.
It is a movement.
