Splits59 looks like another VC-backed athleisure label dressing Bella Hadid and Ariana Grande. It's actually been run by the same two founders since 2008, with no investor ever found. Its sustainability and "Made in LA" claims, though, remain entirely unverified.

Founder-run

The Big Picture

Genuinely Independent

Splits59 has run for eighteen years with no investor, funding round, or acquisition ever found, and its two original co-founders are still listed as its owners with no successor CEO installed. As a small, direct-to-consumer label with no stores of its own, it has generated little public labor or environmental record to weigh — its sustainability claims are real but self-reported and unverified. What's on record points to two founders who still answer only to themselves.
