== History ==
[[Marc Ecko]] started as a graffiti artist in the [[New York]] area while still in college. Ecko soon began to design handmade T-shirts. Soon after they became available, emerging cultural icons such as [[Spike Lee]] and [[Chuck D.]] began sporting Ecko's designs. Attention to *eckō unltd. became more widespread in 1993, when the initial line of six popular T-shirt designs appeared on [[Good Morning America]]. The company soon expanded into the hip-hop, skate/extreme sport and designer clothing markets and also began producing footwear, leather goods, gloves, outerwear, underwear, bags and a women's collection. Eckō has recently developed a videogame capitalizing on the graffiti culture, called "[[Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure|Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure]]".
