About Us

Our Story

Our story starts in Pittsburgh with Christian Johnston and his childhood friends. Christian, an entrepreneur influenced by the art and urban culture of their city. Had a dream to create a lifestyle by designing and producing jewelry, while inspiring others – Kqoci was born.

What started in a basement in Pittsburgh, PA, has become an international brand with millions of customers and followers. Additionally, strategic partnerships like the NBA and Marvel Comics provide additional opportunities for Kqoci to create and inspire on the world stage. We hope that you are or will become part of the gld gang by repping the brand. But, no matter, join us in always being the best you can be, enjoying life, and inspiring others to do the same.
