Welcome to XVI Noir! Our brand was born right here in Swansea by two twenty-year-old mates with nothing but ambition, a love for fashion, and the dream of building something from the ground up. We didn’t have investors, big budgets, or fancy studios – just the grit to get started and the vision to create clothing that actually means something. Every collection we drop reflects our journey: the risks we’ve taken, the lessons we’ve learned, and the belief that no matter where you come from, you can create your own path. For us, this is more than just clothing – it’s a movement of self-expression, hard work, and pride in proving people wrong. Whether you’re here for everyday wear or statement pieces, we want you to feel like you’re part of our story every time you put something on. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to grow with you.

Ideas that once lived only on paper have now been built into reality. every sketch, every late night design, and every single detail we dreamed up has been brought to life in the clothes you see today

The right item is a hoodie with the same graphic design and text on the back. The graphic design includes abstract shapes and the text 'X YOU NOIR EST. 2006 FIRST COLLECTION EDITION'.
