Fred Hogan started his adult life pursuing a communications degree at Grambling State University in 1989.  By the spring of 1993 he completed his goal and graduated with a Bachelors degree.  Hogan dreamed of becoming a sports broadcaster, but his love of fashion pointed him in a different direction.  In 1998 Hogan started working with one of the largest furriers in the state of Michigan, where he learned about the many types of furs.  Hogan began to market and sell custom furs to athletes such as Detroit Pistons - Rick Mahorn, Orlando Magic - Nick Anderson and Detroit Lions - Barry Sanders just to name a few, by using his knowledge of the fur trade.  While promoting furs Hogan began to design and wear tailored suits and linen clothing, which birthed his career in custom design and catapulted him into the fashion icon he is today.  Hogan was known for wearing “One of a Kind” suits.

Hogan’s fashion sense was confirmed when his unique designs were featured at several fashion shows and events like "The White Party", in Detroit, MI.  While attending a black tie affair for the North American Auto Show, Hogan’s suit proved to be show stopping.  He was admired and approached by the fashion editor of the Michigan Chronicle and featured in the next issue.  The designer Mr. Fred Hogan’s phone began ringing non stop.

Hogan began his business relationship with Troy McSwain II after attending a custom tailors convention in Las Vegas, Nevada. While both of them had very successful businesses in 2008 they would join forces to become a dynamic duo.  Hogan relocated to Rancho Cucamonga in sunny California to work side by side with McSwain.   Hogan and McSwain have hit the fashion industry by storm.  

Designer Fred Hogan’s mantra is "Failure's Not An Option".  In Fashion he has proven to have what it takes to make the ordinary into the extraordinary!
