Ecko(also
spelled Eckõ)
is a brand
of urban
clothing
that has
been popular
among the
subculture
since the
late 1990s,
but has
moved into
the
mainstream
during the
early 2000s.
Due to its
relatively
high
pricing, it
can be
considered
an urban
designer
label.
Since its
creation in
1993, Ecko
unltd. brand
has expanded
to include
men's,
women's and
kids
apparel,
shoes,watches,
belts, bags,
and eyewear.
The label was established in 1993 by Marc Ecko, an artist, designer and entrepreneur, from New Jersey, at age 20.
The Rhinoceros
Ecko Unltd. was founded in 1993, but the rhinoceros logo did not appear for several years. Marc soon realized he needed a distinctive and unique logo. He chose this as the company's logo because his father owned wooden sculptures of rhinoceros. The Ecko logo depicts a silhouette of a rhinoceros. He has also been involved in charitable projects to prevent the extinction of the animal.
