KULTJAH BY DESIGN
A hip-hop clothing boutique reopens in Norwalk
By Brita Brundage,WESTCHESTER WEEKLY


"The spot," says designer Jahmane, "is intended to be low-key and hard-to-find." The three J's--Jahmane, John and Jay--opened their walk-up on Orchard Street, not far from Wall Street, April 30, but the shop and studio is a continuation of the specialty work they've been producing since the '80s. At its essence, Kultjah is a grassroots effort, a combination of art, graphics, street culture, African symbolism, graffiti, limited edition sneakers, specialty skateboards and music. It's a lifestyle, as evidenced by Jahmane, John and Jay, who wear their own creations--hand-printed shirts and sneakers, like John's, in shiny metallic gold.
