Strange Island

Strange Island was established with one goal in mind, to create products that are works of art. Each of our items goes through a laborious design process where they are endlessly evaluated for quality, fit, and aesthetic taste before hitting the market. Everything from the items themselves, the packaging, to the layout of the purchase receipt, was designed with the customer's experience in mind.  We strive to create products that are strange, stunning, and unique as the people who own them.

The Designer.

Originally from Southern Europe, Fahrudin Omerovic emigrated to the US in 1997. Alongside his family, Fahrudin lived through the fall of Yugoslavia and all the despair that ensued. Post-war, his family wanted to provide a better life for his handicapped brother, so they sought a better life in the United States. Fahrudin received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Ohio, where he majored in Illustration and Design. He frequently volunteers at children’s homes, speaks at schools, and donates to various charities. "It is because of my childhood that I understand the plight of the human experience. As such, I wish to use my creativity not only to make people look cool, but also help change the world in parallel. I vow to donate a percentage of each sale to help those less fortunate. I want to leave this planet one day knowing that I made it a better place than when I stepped foot on it." Through years of diligent work (ranging from sketching, manufacturing, marketing), Fahrudin established Strange Island in 2013. Today, the brand can be spotted in over 100 countries. "Let's keep the mission going." - Fahrudin.
