Our Team
We are more than a clothing brand. We are a movement.
Rogue Risers was born from fire — the kind of fire that comes from struggle, heartbreak, and rising when it feels like everything is trying to keep you down.
We believe that healing isn't linear, strength doesn't always look loud, and rebellion can be holy.
This brand was built for the outliers. The survivors. The warriors who refuse to quit.
💬 Meet the Founders
Donald Walter – Co-Founder
The voice behind Fuel & Fire, and the heart that sparked this vision.
Rogue Risers started as an idea rooted in pain — not to preach, but to reach people who feel lost, overlooked, or done.
For Donald, this isn’t a brand. It’s personal.
Born from personal battles with mental health and the daily fight to keep going, Fuel & Fire became his way of showing up for others while continuing to survive himself.
Every word, every design, every post is a reminder:
You’re not alone, and you don’t have to quit.
Kinnith Gibbs – Co-Founder
A quiet force who helped turn the vision into movement.
Kinnith brings more than support — he brings lived experience.
He knows what it means to suffer in silence.
To question your worth.
To feel like you’ll never be enough.
And because of that, he’s committed to making sure no one else has to feel that kind of loneliness.
His strength is in his empathy. His purpose is in his pain. And his impact is in how many people he reminds that they do matter.
🧠 Why We Exist
Rogue Risers isn’t just about clothes.
It’s about the reminder you wear when life gets loud.
It’s about giving a voice to the quiet fight happening in millions of hearts.
It’s about rising from what was meant to break you — and doing it boldly, on your terms.
Each piece, each post, each message is a statement:
“You are not alone. Your pain is not permanent. And this storm will not define you.”
We are here for those who don’t fit the mold.
We’re not here to blend in — we’re here to rise rogue.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you're wearing our gear, reading our messages, or simply surviving another day — you're part of this rebellion. And we see you.
