Co-Created

By Brieane Olson

How Pacsun transformed from a legacy retailer at a crossroads into a cultural force by building with the next generation of consumers. This is the story of listening, adapting, and co-creating culture alongside the people who define it.

Written by Pacsun CEO Brieane Olson, Co-Created offers a blueprint for brands ready to evolve beyond traditional retail and become true cultural partners to their communities.

"I know firsthand that collaborating with your community is the secret to building something truly iconic. Co-Created is Brie Olson's love letter to culture and creativity—showing how listening and co-creation can transform not just a brand, but the world around it. Community as the new couture! That's hot."

"Pacsun's evolution is a fascinating example of the possibilities unlocked when brands operate with an eye towards what's next. They recognized that the future of shopping is about creating an ecosystem where brands, creators, and communities come together. With this, they were one of our first partners to seize the opportunity in discovery-led e-commerce. It's a great lesson in modern brand building."

Shou Zi Chew

CEO of TikTok

"Turnarounds are challenging, each in their own way. Yet, in Olson's hands, Pacsun's turnaround is a joyous re-creation that results in a new answer to the most fundamental of questions: Why is this business relevant?...Get inspired by what she and her team did at Pacsun –then imagine what you could achieve."
