About
ONB Apparel is a fashion brand based out of Ontario, Canada.
When Co-Founders Mike and Shannon Austman originally started ONB it was purely out of a passion for the creative and the desire and drive to own their own business. However, in summer of 2017 our lives came to a screeching halt and took on new meaning when Mike was diagnosed with Stage 3 Colon Cancer, which required major surgery, 6 rounds of chemotherapy and countless tests, which will be ongoing for the rest of his life.
Instead of letting Mike's diagnosis end our dreams, we decided to re-strategize, rebrand and repurpose ONB. You see during the chaos, which is the journey of cancer we realized how far research has come, yet how much further it needs to go. The thought of anyone else having to go though this journey is absolutely heartbreaking, but is reality for far more people than should be. This is why with every purchase made from or of ONB Apparel, a portion of the profits are donated directly to cancer research - mostly, through the Canadian Cancer Society.
It is our mission, to do anything we can to help in the search for a cure!
