Ryan Marc Katz was born in Durban, South Africa. He moved to La Jolla, California when he was 10. From a young age Ryan has been a creative spirit. He has experimented with ink, wood, paint, metal and fabric. His inspiration comes from classic cars, modern design, contemporary art, skateboarding culture, music, travel, leisure and timeless style. Ryan fledged his apparel design career with True Religion jeans and various active wear and private label brands. He has also collaborated with Vestal, a Southern California watch company. RMK CLOTHiNG is Ryan's menswear line.
He is at peace driving down PCH in his custom shaved El Camino or cruising one of his bikes. When he is not designing or traveling, you can find him at the beach or causing havoc with his two Dachshunds. Ryan collects 50’s tin robots and carries a wood grain briefcase.
