ABOUT US
Our Mission
Our Mission at CHRIS TRIBUNA is to boost confidence in men, starting with their clothes.
What do clothing and confidence have in common?
"Having confidence in your clothes will make a huge difference in your life. I believe that men have never been more ready to embrace fashion. The ability to be stylish lies within every man who is ready to take that step." - Forbes.com
Everyone has that one or more outfits that make them feel as if they could take on the world. Clothing is a great confidence booster and a way to make a statement without saying a word. Chris and his team want their clients to feel as if they could take on the world by wearing a piece from the CHRIS TRIBUNA collection.
Our goal is to help create confidence and lower the suicide rates in the United States. Therefore, $10.00 from every shirt purchase at CHRIS TRIBUNA will be donated to the American Foundation For Suicide Prevention.
Who Is Chris Tribuna?
Growing up in the small town of Berkeley Heights, N.J., Chris Tribuna showed his artistic ability at a very young age. Whether it was drawing, singing, dancing, acting or creating balloon decorations, he enjoyed expressing himself artistically.
At the age of 12, he became a young entrepreneur and started his very successful balloon decorating company, Twist With Me 2, which provided elaborate decorations for events big and small, including an NHL event and TV show.
During his high school career, Chris began to realize that fashion is an art form and a way for people to express themselves. Having a taste for luxury companies, Chris dreamed of one day starting his own fashion company for men with style, who take pride in their appearance. CHRIS TRIBUNA Clothing & Accessories was born.
How We Started
Chris set out to add a new luxury piece to his personal clothing collection and searched for something that stood out. He came across a beautiful yellow textured dress shirt with patterned cuffs.
When Chris wore the shirt for the first time, he was asked repeatedly, "Where did you get that shirt?". At that moment, Chris began envisioning ways of reinventing this concept.
Within a few days, Chris began designing shirts to wear himself. He set out to reinvent the patterned cuff concept and create the inspiration and competitive advantage for his new company.
A short time later, the first of three prototypes were created and, once perfected, his invention was submitted to a Patent Agent. Currently, this exciting design concept is Patent Pending.
