In a century driven by tech advancements and innovation, staying agile and choosing diversity over perfecting a single niche is paramount. A man who wears many hats, Jabaar Fowler is a composer, performer, fashion designer, e-commerce expert, and many more, sharing his powerful fusion of creativity and problem-solving with the world. Through many trials, tribulations, and triumphs, he maintained a spark of hope and determination – a drive that led to the founding of EZiattos, a unique clothing brand where opulence and practicality intertwine into captivating, comfortable, and classy designs.
Now a designer known for his wide range of clothing, specifically the EZiattos Co. shoe, Jabaar’s foray into the fashion world was sparked by hardship. A lifelong sportsman who spent his high school years as a football and track star athlete, Jabaar suffered a brutal ankle injury in his senior year – an affliction that forced him to shift careers. More than a hindrance to his professional life, the injury affected his day-to-day happiness and comfort.
In a time of darkness, Jabaar found solace in the artistic realms of fashion and music. While his love for hip-hop helped him heal through verbalizing trauma in impactful lyrics, his infatuation with chic designs instilled in him the motivation to create a shoe that supports the entire foot - from heel to toe - while looking good. “Most of all, I wanted to help people feel more confident through the recovery process,” Jabaar adds.

A unique blend of visual appeal and functionality, the EZiattos Co. shoe’s profile supports the arch. At the same time, its neat and polished design makes it a perfect choice for all occasions, from running practice to fancy dates and casual outings. From a personal struggle to researching shoe designs that promote optimal rehabilitation, Jabaar created a product that redefines the sports footwear landscape, a testament to his resilience.
Within the EZiattos Collection, this innovative founder intertwines three of his passions. With a music-playing feature, fans and website visitors can sample his lyrical and melodic prowess while purchasing the EZiattos Co. shoes or other exclusive items available online. This inherent connection between music and fashion is also evident in the name; inspired by JBeyah, Jabaar’s stage name, EZiattos honors his music career and elevates his artistic profile.
Looking into the future, Jabaar is looking to form joint ventures with college athletes, like-minded brands, and entrepreneurs passionate about empowering sportsmen and sportswomen. On November 11th - on Jabaar’s birthday - he will release a new shoe, this time, focusing more on the style and fashion aspects.
Reflecting on his story, Jabaar shares words of advice to aspiring entrepreneurs and those struggling to find direction: “I always say, ‘If I can do it, then anybody can do it.’ I believe that life’s a journey, not a destination, and every challenge happens for a reason. It’s all about overcoming obstacles and finding the light at the end of the tunnel. Pressure forms diamonds, and adversity builds resilience. As long as you keep fighting, anything is possible.”
