Form Athletics launched late in 2009. It was co-founded by former WEC featherweight champion Urijah Faber and Mark Miller, a former DC Shoes Senior Vice President and founder of the M3 snowboard line.

In July 2010, only seven months after its official launch, the brand was acquired by American footwear giant K-Swiss. 18 months, and nearly $4,000,000 later, the brand is bankrupt.

Bones has been wearing their walkout shirts for a while now. I have the one that he wore for the Bader fight before I started hating him.
