embrace goodness, strong values, and great virtues. Our virtues include Honor, Love, Courage, Wisdom and
Trust. We hope that our five virtues will inspire and motivate you to overcome your obstacles and live in
peace and harmony.
Our Brand
The High5 brand embraces a stylish design inspired by our virtues, emphasizing a mix of cutting edge
style; artistic silhouettes, with an exquisite attention to detail, high quality fabrics and a tailored fit for the
socially conscious man and woman who live the premium lifestyle.
Our Story
High5 Fashion was conceived by Joel Yeghen, a successful entrepreneur who grew up surrounded by
apparel designers, manufacturers and the retail industry. In his formative years, his DNA was molded with
one goal in mind, the creation of his own line. Lacking the inspiration to fulfill his destiny, Joel’s talents
drove his successes in other professional endeavors. In the summer of 2007, for the first time, Joel found
himself isolated and (engulfed) in a series of disappointing events both personal and professional. As he
examined his circumstances, he realized that he had lost his direction. He realized, (as many others have),
that life is a blessing and altered his environment and priorities to reflect his new perspective. Intent on
surrounding himself with positivism and goodness, Joel searched for something symbolic, to incorporate
into his life. A trend setter in his own right, Joel turned his own fortune around and found the inspiration
for his destiny.
Our Inspiration
Our inspirational symbol sometimes takes its form among intricately carved golden charms worn on
bracelets or necklaces. Other times it lies hidden in unsuspecting places. Often, it is found on silver key
chains, or even used in architectural designs. Many times hidden symbols are secretly woven between the
lines. It is the number 5, and for many generations, in many places around the world it has been worn as
a spiritual shield. It is the symbol that embraces the guiding principles of our inspiration. High5 resides
amidst what seems to be a simple hand. Five fingers designed so perfectly – each a different size, each best
suited for a different purpose, and yet together they become a powerful entity. At times it is strong and
firm pushing away the unwanted. At times it is gentle, reassuring and welcoming. The High5 hand speaks its
own language, one that represents your virtues. When you have nothing to say wear High5 with Confidence.
