That Gorilla Brand, abbreviated TGB, is a family-run conservation label founded in 2018 by Leo and Casey Gripari after a trip to Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Operating from Athens, it makes graphic-led everyday essentials — hoodies, tees, joggers and military-style jackets — largely in organic cotton and produced in Portugal. A donation from every item funds The Gorilla Organization's community water, school and infrastructure projects in southwestern Uganda. Harris Elliott joined as creative director for the SS26 "Bwindi" collection, which debuted exclusively at END. Past collaborators include designer Johnny Diamandis.
