A local clothing line is having a three-part summer event that will be sure to make Charlotteans' mouths drop.

Charlotte natives Sam Reams and Michael Smith have paired together to create a clothing line that is definitely a head turner. Their fan-named line, NAMEUS is different from any other brand here in Charlotte.

"Our provocative and gritty clothing is inspired by the streets, youth culture and out of just plain boredom with what is available in stores," said Reams.

This summer, NAMUES is throwing a three-part series event called Summer Grind to give exposure to local designers.

The first event on June 10 will showcase the tank tops NAMEUS has designed for summer and spotlight two other clothing designers with a hipster twist to their style. The event will be held at Jet Ultra Lounge with musical performances by Pac Div and Schyler Chaise.

The second event will include an art exhibit to show the less popular street-inspired art in 3D form. The final event includes a skateboarding competition, special appearance by Dom Kennedy and more local designers.

"Each event will show more and more of what NAMEUS has to offer in the brand," Reams said.

These events were put together to demonstrate how clothes are inspired by everyone — whether your interest is music, art or extreme sports.

Tickets and a limited edition tee are now available at www.nameus.bigcartel.com.

Reams adds, "If you are young and ready to experience something different than anything else this summer, we expect you there."
