BANG!® was founded in 2014 in Miami by Duny De LaCruz and Cristian Cravello.

Since his childhood in the Canary Islands, Duny was driven by a strong entrepreneurial spirit working for years in his own ventures and fashion retail operations. Duny is a styling expert, and while he co-designs BANG! & DC2 lines, he also keeps a close eye in the daily operations of the business logistics, our supply chain, product development, and quality check of each piece made by the brand.

Cristian is veteran of marketing crafts with an extensive background in the entertainment industry. He never stops to fuel his ongoing passion for trends and pop culture. Cristian partakes the creative direction of BANG® and DC2® as its “DJ” (Design Jockey) and oversees the parts that power up the brand’s identity and technical components.

Duny and Cristian met in Miami in 2012. The beach brought them together and ignited their vision to launch a line of men’s swimwear.Their mutual obsession with quality, and with putting out there a cut and fit for men’s beachwear that they couldn’t find anywhere else, accelerated the line’s success faster than they imagined. And the original and exclusive colorful prints that they created for BANG!® soon became the signature of the brand’s style.

The line expanded by launching in 2019 its first men's underwear series as well as lines of activewear, fitness and accessories. The addition of more categories since 2022 redefined the brand into newer spaces of men’s athleisure and casual wear.
 
And in 2024 a whole new chapter begun with the arrival of the new “baby”. The creation and launch of DC2®: a companion menswear brand from the same team of D & C, to enable a dedicated place for more and different new ideas and concepts.
 
Basking in pop culture, whenever a new beach day or pool party calls to play, BANG!® is always ready for showtime!

This is where we create, design and test-drive each of our BANG!®️ swimsuits and beach-ready styles.
