✦ the story behind tethered
our story.
a hoodie brand born from faith, community, and the belief that what you wear can say something that matters.
// where it started
worn by belief.
built with purpose.
Tethered started with a simple question: what if the clothes you wore could start a real conversation about faith — not in a cheesy way, not in a churchy way, but in a way that felt genuine, warm, and totally you?
We're a small brand started by a YoungLife leader who spends her weeks walking alongside high school girls — pouring into them, believing in them, and watching faith do the thing that only faith can do. Tethered is the natural next step.
Every hoodie is designed with intention. Heavy fleece. Earthy tones. Scripture and faith phrases in bold, bubbly lettering that you actually want on your back. Nothing trendy for the sake of trendy. Just something real, made to last.
wear what you believe.
share what you know.
give what you can.
// why tethered
anchored.
always.
Tethered means held. Connected. Not going anywhere. In a world that's constantly trying to pull you in every direction, Tethered is a quiet reminder of what you're actually anchored to.
It's a word that doesn't need explaining to the right person — and for everyone else, it starts a conversation worth having. That's exactly the kind of brand we wanted to build.
// the mission behind the mission
clothes that send girls to camp.
A portion of every hoodie sold goes directly to a YoungLife camp scholarship fund — making sure no girl misses her week because of a bill. Camp changes lives. We've seen it happen. And now, every purchase is part of that story.
We sell person to person — like Girl Scout cookies, but make it faith-apparel. Word of mouth, front porch drops, and real community. No middleman. Just people who care, wearing something that shows it.
// the product
