A TESTIMONIAL from Carlos Santana Jimenez, founder of SRVNTZ:
2007 in the city of Paramount Ca, a young man was pacing back and forth in a church parking lot. Strung out on dope this kid was tired and wanted change in his life but couldn't seem to kick his addiction. A preacher had asked if he would meet with him that night. He was unable to sit in service so he walked outside, the preacher followed and told him not to leave. After service the young man met with the preacher in a small room in back of this church and rededicated his life to Jesus Christ. Heavy spiritual warfare took place that night because of doors that were opened up in his life, but in the end this young man was set free and left filled with the Holy Spirit. I was that strung out kid and if God can use me, best believe.
SLKCLOUD: In the Dream We Trust.
In 2012 I started Silk Cloud to create something I felt that was missing from my life. A brand that was more than boring logo tees without meaning. I wanted something to express my emotions and passions through- something to share with other people, and until now, still sharing that vison with you.
