About Us
Who We Are
It all started with a hat. My mother used to take any hat that I wore off my head and playfully say she was going to keep it. Growing up this became a tradition. When she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, she gradually faded from the rock-solid foundation that built me, to needing to be taken care of. I was happy to return the favor.
Every morning that I saw her, she continued to playfully snatch my hat. She had the biggest and brightest smile every single time. As her disease progressed, she did this less and less, and it often brought me to tears because of how much I missed it.
BGEAR was created as a movement of passion to commemorate those that we love. Everybody has had a loved one affected by something, and we must ask the question,
Who's Gonna Take Care Of Me?
It is our vision that what you choose to wear sends a message and helps you preserve heartfelt memories. We combine style, comfort, and passion into products that leave you looking good, feeling good, and doing good for others!
Why we do what we do
BGEAR products come from one man’s “LOVE” for his mother due to Alzheimer's. After realizing his mother could no longer play keep-away with his hat due to her deteriorating health, Butch Grimes created a clothing line that reminds consumers of youth's comfort and simplicity.
New Partnerships
Bgear is proud to partner with WhosGonnaTakeCareOfMe.org, a nonprofit supporting families and caregivers of loved ones facing Alzheimer’s and dementia. Together, we fuse streetwear with purpose—raising awareness, providing real-time resources, and honoring the unsung heroes who show up every day. Every Bgear piece worn isn’t just a fashion choice—it’s a stand for caregivers, a voice for families, and a step toward meaningful change.
