Quotes
Splatoon
“ | The Firefin logo, a stylized blowfish, has long been a favorite of squid-hop set and anyone else who likes to keep it 100. Fans dig the loose fit and laid-back vibe that has become Firefin signature. Did you know that Firefin fans are up to ten times more likely to take selfies in front of graffiti while gazing into the distance? | ” |
Splatoon 2
“ | Firefin is the king of streetwear brands. Not only are their hoodies and caps always brimming with classic style, their bell hats and visors are a throwback to old-school hip-hop style, and their large selection of designs makes them stand out from the sea of other streetwear brands. | ” |
“ | Your 'tude is righteous, as you say. Is your science as defiant? Prove that your battle rhymes can slay. |
” |
Splatoon 3
“ | Squid Research Lab Fashion Desk intern on deck! Have you stared into the angry eyes of the FishFry? Then you're already familiar with Firefin, the gear brand for the streets, by the streets. Feel gritty - look fresh. Like diving into the ocean after getting sand in your shorts. | ” |
