Carlos Merritt - Atlanta, Georgia
Carlos Merritt is the founder and creative force behind Don Dada Official a brand built on ownership, elevation, and excellence in every lane.
Before fashion, Carlos made his mark in professional football, competing in the AAF and XFL and earning NFL workouts through sheer drive and discipline. When COVID hit and the politics of the game took over, he pivoted choosing fashion as his new field of play.
The same sharp mindset once used to study game film now fuels every Don Dada drop from design to campaign execution. But Don Dada isn’t just clothing. It’s a movement for the multifaceted athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs who refuse to be boxed in.
For those who move with intention and never wait to be chosen this is fashion for the bold.
This is ownership. Elevation. Don Dada.
