I think they made a huge mistake not having RomperJill in their presentation. This seems to be a niche product that gay men might appreciate, but if they had made it clear that they had a female version, the customer base would have grown exponentially.
Damon and Mark's faces when these two took their suits off. They were like "oh god please spare us" Then they hear the profit numbers and suddenly they are all about the "community" hahaha.
I mean he would invest in clothing like that's not marketed towards men or those of his age group. . So he feels he doesn't need to wear them to promote them. In this case, it would seem dishonest if he promotes clothing for men within his age demographic while not wearing it himself.
Its a flash in the pan. People who are picky enough to want to wear this tend to loose interest in a short time. Maybe in a year at most. They needed to b more than just the one thing.
Really surprised they didn't even get an offer. They had good margins. They were very profitable. Good sales that were continuing to grow. Pretty much everything a shark could possibly want, yet no offer at all.
It's just that in a clothing business if you have nothing unique or proprietary, you can get crushed. If someone else copies their style and sell it for a cheaper price, they'll have a big problem, specially if bigger brands try to compete on their target market.
@@NeroGamingX Yep. This is one of the reasons why consumer goods like clothing and food can be hard businesses to be in. There is always someone who can come out with a cheaper copy-cat product at any given time. They’re better off creating a range of clothing, and further establishing their brand because just relying on a romper of all the clothing items isn’t smart. I’m surprised that people still wear those.
3:29 subtext Kevin: “I have the customers you need” Laurie: “these aren’t the same customers.” Kevin: “yeah they are. young gay men.” Laurie: “yeah I’m not going any further with this one.”
I’m pretty sure the company they got their idea from was RompHim, which closed down in 2020. Personally, as a consumer, I don’t love that they kinda ripped off another company to get ahead. I get it was a smart business move for them, but it just makes me a bit uneasy
So it’s fine rip of the customer with margins 😂 but companies no 😂 they had a good idea good bussiness profitable they just suck 😂 no confidence they made it seem like they brand was dead and they need the sharks
@@Datlightskinnn oh no don’t get me wrong - companies should absolutely not be ripping off their consumers. I actually don’t mind the concept (though I’m not a man so my opinion isn’t as important here). I can’t speak to their other business practices. I just don’t like that they intentionally ripped off another start-up’s idea just because they could. I get that’s how business works, but it just seems wrong
If they’re done right I can see teens wearing it too. In gym culture the man crop top is making a comeback it’s all about marketing tbh some pull it off some don’t
It is basically a matching shirt and shorts rather inconveniently seen together. I’m a bit surprised gay men have embraced this. It reminds me of something 80-year-Old people in a condo community might wear. Or a festive courier uniform. Why can’t you match the shirt and pants without seeing it together? What is the advantage?
Easy to copy, no brand and profit margins in the garment industry are horrible. If you sell 1 million in garments, you probably won't even make net profit due to the high cost of goods sales and high marketing costs.
Had the shirt/shorts be separated and the material being good quality, those would be nice clothes tbh. The weird aspect of it being a romper is ehh. Nice breathable technology would’ve been great too but then again they have a niche market so the sales might’ve not been the same. Damned if you damned if you don’t situation. Double edged sword
Actually the sharks got this one wrong as of February their company was valued at 25 Million Dollars so the Romper really was the way to go , also none of this is supported by any fact and you keep reading this because you secretly want to believe you were right and the sharks were wrong lol
i think they could have landed the pitch a bit better, youre on TV and all i heard was, fashion for gays only, this was your opportunity to widen your demographic...

Have you seen how he walks?
The whole world is turning gay. I think he's right
Wonder if he is a product endorser (wearer) for Rounderbum🍑!?!
He has a nice one😉

It's the nature of the clothing industry. They will be lucky if their operating margins stay in the single digits

Hate when they say "they made a bad decision" at the end
Black dudes have worn something similar to this in the past during summer. Called short sets. Will Smith mentions this style in "Summertime".
difference is short sets aren't anywhere near as zesty looking as this.
Who would have thought that gay men and fraternity guys are demographics that overlap in their taste of male romper apparel.
Pretty respectful gentlemen
