About

Rashod Armon Stanley, known by his artist name "Atlanta Santana," is an Atlanta-native who used his designer talents to create a unique fashion line called The Trenches while incarcerated. The line gained viral attention after a video showed him modeling pieces made from prison uniforms, dental floss, and a paper clip. The Trenches isn't just a clothing line; it’s a lifestyle brand built to represent the struggles, resilience, and aspirations of people coming from challenging backgrounds.With a mission to inspire others, The Trenches speaks to those who aim to overcome societal norms and carve their own path toward personal success and fulfillment. A portion of the proceeds from the brand is dedicated to supporting communities within "the trenches" — those who are working hard to break the cycle and improve their lives. The line promotes unity, integrity, and clarity of mind, symbolizing a journey of self-discovery and achievement despite adversity.The motto, “Location Doesn’t Determine Destination,” reflects Stanley’s philosophy that where you come from does not dictate where you can go. The Trenches is not only about providing high-quality underground fashion but about encouraging others to remain humble, acknowledge their blessings, and never forget their roots as they pursue their dreams.“Location Doesn’t Determine Destination”#THE TRENCHES GLOBALCEO-Rashod Armon Stanley ©2012
