Hey, humxns. It’s Bree.
Some of you might be wondering where I’ve been over the past three years. The answer? Life. A lot of life. And for better or for worse, sometimes that life takes us to places we don’t expect. So, let’s talk about it.
In 2021, I walked away from Only Human for a while. A lot happened in that period, and the brand as I knew it felt like it was falling apart. Personal relationships intertwined with business, boundaries blurred, and before I knew it, everything I had worked so hard for—our community, our mission, the sense of purpose we built together—started to slip through my fingers. People I loved became strangers, and in the midst of all that loss, I had to face a simple truth: I couldn’t keep running the business the way I had been.
I moved to Chicago. I took a step back to rebuild, to heal, and to figure out who I wanted to be, not just as a leader but as a humxn. It wasn’t easy. It was messy and painful, and honestly, I wasn’t sure if I could come back at all.
But here I am. I stayed.
I’m back with a fresh perspective, a renewed mission, and a whole new energy to take Only Humxn to the next chapter. I’ve learned more than I could have ever anticipated, not just about business, but about life. And now, I’m bringing that growth and that truth into everything we do at OHX.
A New Logo, A New Era.
You might’ve noticed that we’ve got a whole new look, and that’s intentional. The new OHX logo represents everything this next chapter is about—growth, resilience, and the power of transformation. It’s cleaner, bolder, and more refined, but still carries the raw, human energy that Only Humxn has always been about. The X in our name is a symbol of inclusivity and empowerment. By replacing the gendered “man” in “human,” we reclaim the term to reflect a broader spectrum of identities beyond traditional boundaries. The X serves as a neutral gender marker, honoring all individuals—regardless of gender. This choice embodies our commitment to creating a space where everyone can feel seen, heard, and valued.
Now, more than ever—with Voldemort back in office and our rights under threat—it’s crucial that we represent those whose identities are being erased. The X is our way of standing firm, offering a space where everyone can feel seen, heard, and valued. Together, we will redefine what it means to be humxn, and we won’t let anyone be forgotten.
This shift isn’t just aesthetic; it’s a reflection of the journey. The old branding belonged to a different time—a different version of me, of this brand, and of our community. This new logo is about stepping forward with clarity, intention, and a commitment to what really matters. It’s a symbol of everything we’ve been through, everything we’ve learned, and everything we’re building moving forward.
Change is never easy, but it’s necessary. And this rebrand isn’t about forgetting the past—it’s about honoring it while making space for something even greater.
What Else Is New?
First of all, we’re relaunching the brand with some new designs that I am so excited to share with you. These are more than just cool tees and hoodies; they’re conversations in fabric form. They're bold, they're purposeful, and they’re meant to challenge, inspire, and unite. We’re not just selling shirts; we’re igniting conversations that matter. We’re here to make waves, not just sell clothing.
You’ll also notice that our focus is shifting more sharply toward mental health awareness and LGBTQIA+ advocacy. These aren’t just buzzwords for us—they’re the heart of what we’re doing moving forward. We’re working with nonprofit organizations that align with our mission to give back and create real change. A portion of the proceeds from our designs will be going straight to these partners, and we’re all about impact over profits.
The Biggest Sale We’ve Ever Had
With this fresh start, we’re making room for what’s next—and that means it’s time to say goodbye to some of our OG designs. Right now, all of our old collections are on clearance for up to 80% off until they’re gone.
This isn’t just a sale—it’s a piece of our history. These designs carried us through the early days of Only Human, through the highs, the lows, and everything in between. So if you’ve had your eye on something, now’s the time to grab it before it’s gone for good.
Where Do We Go from Here?
There’s a lot of work to be done. Rebuilding trust, reconnecting with the community, and diving deep into everything we’ve learned. But this time, I’m doing it with you. The heart of Only Humxn has always been its community and it’s time we got back to the basics of why we started this in the first place: connection.
I can’t tell you how excited I am to be back in the game. And I hope, after everything, you’re excited too. There’s so much to look forward to, and I can’t wait to share it with all of you. Let’s keep going—together.
Thank you for sticking with me. I’m here, and we’ve got a lot of work to do—let’s get started.
Stay humxn, stay real, stay loud.
