Founded in 2010 in Arizona by Vanessa Lee and Ian Lopatin, Spiritual Gangster began after the couple taught a yoga class to hip-hop music. A friend jokingly called Lopatin a "spiritual gangster," inspiring them to print it on a t-shirt—sparking a movement!
In 2022, Spiritual Gangster launched a men's collection, successfully encouraging more men to embrace yoga and mindfulness. Today, they design high-quality yoga leggings, crop tops, sports bras, and performance apparel, blending style, comfort, and spirituality for the modern yogi.
