play00:19

we did a little under $30 million last

play00:21

year that's crazy and how old are you

play00:24

guys for 23 and 24 and how many years

play00:27

ago did you guys start this company we

play00:28

just did a 5ye anniversary

play00:30

which is why we brought you over here

play00:32

cuz we're going to do something very

play00:33

special for the 5 years and yeah we

play00:35

started when we were 1819 no yeah we

play00:38

literally started in University selling

play00:40

T-shirts and hoodies to our friends we

play00:41

made our first video it went great on

play00:43

social media and from there on

play00:45

everything just started wow so you guys

play00:48

literally started this out of like a

play00:49

dorm room or something it's like the

play00:51

like the typical American story in a way

play00:53

you know when we watch over like

play00:55

American movies it's like yo Steve Jobs

play00:58

started in the garage and he was able to

play01:00

build it we're like [ __ ] it's kind of

play01:02

like what we did in in some way and how

play01:04

many stores do you guys have now right

play01:06

now we have seven no we just opened one

play01:09

so it's we're eight we've got stores in

play01:11

Madrid Barcelona Valencia Milan Lisbon

play01:14

and we just open in I and this is all in

play01:17

just 5 years this is in 5 years and a

play01:20

lot of stress hard work and less hair

play01:23

every day

play01:32

let's go back to the beginning like how

play01:33

much money did you guys start this with

play01:35

cuz even to get a rack of samples like

play01:36

this is like thousands thousands of

play01:38

dollars like how much money did you guys

play01:40

start with and what was it like

play01:41

designing that very first piece I'll be

play01:44

super honest okay in the beginning we

play01:46

did we were college kids we he put €300

play01:51

in and I put €300 in which at the time

play01:53

was like a risk cuz it was like [ __ ]

play01:56

this we're taking this seriously you

play01:57

know we're we're going to become

play01:58

business partners let's do it half half

play02:01

and that gave us enough money to be able

play02:03

to produce the first 20 t-shirts we did

play02:06

and from there on we sold the 20

play02:07

t-shirts we got more money and we were

play02:09

able to reinvest fashion is a cool

play02:11

business because if you're starting off

play02:13

small it doesn't have huge operating

play02:15

costs so you can kind of just reinvest

play02:17

and reinvest and to this day we've

play02:19

bootstrapped the company to the point it

play02:20

is now we have no investors it's all me

play02:23

and Alex and we've been able to reinvest

play02:26

all the money and make it happen Alex do

play02:28

you think that clothing is a business

play02:29

that anybody could get started with

play02:32

today uh I think it's one of the

play02:35

businesses with less entry barriers for

play02:38

what Bruno said and we were able to to

play02:41

create that Snowball Effect when we were

play02:43

buying more t-shirts

play02:46

as as you sold them as we sold

play02:49

them but it's also a very competitive

play02:51

market I think there are many many many

play02:53

clothing brands starting out nowadays so

play02:56

it's very very difficult to

play02:57

differentiate yourself but there's

play02:59

obviously opportunity if you do it well

play03:01

I would say don't start cuz I don't want

play03:02

no more competition

play03:06

[Music]

play03:09

this okay it feels a bit empty but it's

play03:12

empty for a reason these people make

play03:14

sure that the campaigns and the

play03:15

shootings happen and go along right now

play03:18

they just flew to EA which is where

play03:20

we're going to be going eventually I

play03:21

don't know about can I tell him yeah of

play03:22

course okay so we're going to be going

play03:24

to vaa tomorrow cuz we're doing the

play03:25

biggest project we've ever done which is

play03:27

we're bringing to life the new project

play03:29

play03:32

Playboy and they're going to make the

play03:33

new project Playboy match that's going

play03:35

play03:37

play03:42

play03:44

play04:11

play04:19

online store can we check out one of D

play04:20

for let let's see something so we want

play04:22

to show him the Shopify okay we'll show

play04:24

and maybe we have to blur some things

play04:26

out but we'll show everything we can

play04:28

okay last month how about not that

play04:30

bad it's not that bad 1.8 million yeah

play04:34

yesterday is not a good day yesterday is

play04:35

60k whe Bo it's amazing but yesterday

play04:39

was a holiday in Spain so usually people

play04:41

like to relax and have fun during the

play04:43

holiday and not shop as much on off day

play04:45

that's not too bad bro we keep going we

play04:48

have to keep

play04:51

going it's not all fun and laughs we

play04:53

work a lot we have a lot of seniority

play04:55

we're hiring also in the company because

play04:57

Alex and me realized that we're so

play04:59

there's so many things we don't know

play05:01

that's one of the biggest lessons I take

play05:03

away from hanging out with you guys is

play05:04

even since day one you've been like that

play05:07

cuz you working with him is filling gaps

play05:09

that you can't fill and vice versa so I

play05:12

think it is important to know

play05:13

superficially about everything a little

play05:15

bit but

play05:17

then be able to support yourself with

play05:19

people that know way more than you is

play05:20

like Alex he's the CEO of the company he

play05:22

runs all the business he's a serious man

play05:24

he does the operations and I'm doing

play05:27

more of the creative aspect I think it's

play05:28

important to know you're not good at

play05:30

because being self-aware is what's going

play05:32

to take you far well you guys are doing

play05:34

great so far and we got something big

play05:36

coming up but because we're going TOA we

play05:38
