LONELY GHOST AND PACSUN ANNOUNCE EXCLUSIVE RETAIL PARTNERSHIP, UNITING COMMUNITY, CULTURE, AND THE FUTURE OF FASHION

At its core, LONELY GHOST has always been about one thing—connection. Built on the belief that human experiences matter most, the brand has created an online and IRL community where the lonely can be lonely together. Now, with Pacsun as its exclusive retail partner, LONELY GHOST is expanding that mission, bringing its storytelling-driven collections to new audiences through immersive, in-store experiences and the powerful reach of Pacsun.

"LONELY GHOST was born out of a desire to make people feel seen," said Bronson Christensen, Co-founder of LONELY GHOST. "Partnering with Pacsun allows us to take that mission even further—meeting young people where they are, both online and in real life, with a partner that shares our values of diversity, inclusivity, and self-expression."

For Pacsun, the collaboration reinforces its commitment to youth-obsessed marketing strategies that keep it at the forefront of culture. By aligning with emerging talent and purpose-driven brands like LONELY GHOST, Pacsun continues to deliver the styles and stories today's consumers crave.

"LONELY GHOST has tapped into something real with their audience, and that's what makes this partnership work," said Richard Cox, Chief Merchandising Officer at Pacsun. "We're giving their community a new place to connect while introducing our customers to a brand that's shaping conversations in youth culture. Putting the right product in the right spaces is what keeps both brands relevant."

LONELY GHOST and Pacsun deeply resonate with Gen Z, developing strong connections by meeting their audiences where they're at. They understand the importance of building community through authentic storytelling, and together, will create fashion moments that are more than just trends, but shared experiences.

The partnership will launch with exclusive LONELY GHOST styles available only at Pacsun retail locations nationwide and online at Pacsun.com. Apparel includes women's hoodies, a range of tees from baby and boyfriend baby to essential and boxy, in sizes XS - XXL, as well as accessories like hats and tote bags.

The first co-created collection features some of LONELY GHOST's most beloved and recognizable phrases with brand new trending colorways. It highlights fan favorite sayings like TEXT ME WHEN YOU GET HOME, I LOVE YOU SAY IT BACK, TEXT ME WHEN YOU GET LONELY, and YOU FEEL LIKE HOME. Each is a cultural touchpoint in its own right. "Every phrase we use is more than just a slogan. It's a piece of someone's story, it's a conversation starter, and it's a reminder that none of us are truly alone," said Christensen. "This collection is about taking the words our community has connected with for years and refreshing them in ways that feel new, exciting, and exclusive for Pacsun."

Pacsun and LONELY GHOST are setting a new standard for what brand partnerships can be. It is rooted in shared values, fueled by culture, and driven by the belief that the future of fashion lives at the intersection of style and human connection. The partnership will integrate activations and collaborations down the road to spark connection, conversation, and creativity, further blurring the lines between retail and community space.

The casualwear collection will be available starting August 21, 2025 at select Pacsun retail locations nationwide and online at Pacsun.com.
