ULAH: Building a Brand from the Ground Up
Scroll ↓
Turning vision into a lifestyle brand.
We started ULAH by recognizing a gap in our own community — a need for a modern men’s lifestyle destination that reflected both style and substance.
When I co-founded ULAH, it began as a blank slate — no name, no look, no identity. From those early insights, I built the brand DNA from the ground up, shaping its purpose, positioning, assortment, and visual language to create a lifestyle concept that felt elevated yet approachable.
To get it right, we gathered insights through in-person interviews, surveys, demographic and socio-economic research, and a deep dive into the competitive landscape. Those insights became the foundation for our strategy: an assortment plan curated to fit our audience’s lifestyle, a brand positioning that balanced accessibility with aspiration, and a brand architecture, identity, and voice designed to flex across every touchpoint.
Over nine years, ULAH became more than a men’s store. It grew into a nationally recognized lifestyle brand with private-label products, authentic storytelling, and experiential activations that blended commerce with community.
