LOS ANGELES, CA (May 9, 2012) – Southern California local, Bobby Barzi, is announcing the launch of fodada exclusively for the best “dada” in the world. With a wife and two small children of his own, Barzi’s vision is simple – quality, comfortable clothing that complements all of the lines made especially for mothers.
Fodada is created “Fodadas” who live their life around their kids; dads who pretend to be jungle animals one minute and a super hero the next. Dads that make a millennium falcon out of a cardboard box and howl like Chewbacca. Dads who never miss a pitch or goal and don’t mind playing doll house tea party for hours. The line is for fathers who need some comfortable, cozy and hip clothes to relax, play or do whatever in.
The first trendy collection created exclusively for fathers, fodada debut features casual tri-blend hoodies, tees, and polos in wearable shades of grey, black, white and charcoal. The initial collection includes seven go-to pieces: “Baba T,””Baba T Vneck,” “Papa Polo,” “Dada Hoodie,” “Papa Hoodie,” “Otosan Cardigan,” and “Papi Lid.” The collection ranges from $29-$86 and is available at select boutiques and www.fodadawear.com.
“Fatherhood has been the most amazing experience of my life and I have found that I am not alone in this thinking,” says Barzi. “Although mom will always be mom and remain the princess of the house, or the real boss, there are some amazing dads out there that deserve something to call their own. Fodada celebrates these dads and provides the digs for their roll-around-on-the-floor, active, playful lifestyle while adding a dash of hip. “This line is the first iteration of what I hope will be a collaborative effort with many dads and moms on a brand that will go beyond fashion to further establish the awesome experience of fatherhood, and give back to children in need.”
