I love the mesh shorts, I'll be buying a pair for sure. Something I'd like to see is more entrepreneur articles like the last 2 you've posted. I like reading them and it's hard to find good articles that aren't always about the biggest billionaires in the world.

Less related to this specific article. But why do you want to take Minted public? I think it would be cool to hear about some of that thought process as well as those more intricate business decisions and goals you have.

I like the idea of moving the drawstring to the inside of the running shorts rather than outside. I’ve always thought it gives a much cleaner look while running with or without a shirt on.

What length will they be? Or is it TBA?

I agree, I actually just sent over the notes to the manufacturer to have it switched. The inseam will be 5 inch

Unrelated to this week's edition although it was a great read, I am curious if/when will you be planning on shipping the pre-workout to Canada? Been wanted to get my hands on some for a while now!

Great to see all the progress being made with everything you're working on.

Some thoughts on the T-Shirt: I really enjoy the design. My only constructive criticism would be regarding the readability of the design when it comes to the "shading". It may just be me but I find that it visually clouds the design a bit and makes it less readable if that makes sense. Of course that's only my opinion which could be in the minority here.

As far as future topics go:

1) It would be great to hear your plans for the Warehouse/storage as you continue to grow. I read your post about warehouse setup for ease of use and you've clearly put a lot of thought into it. How do you feel about the upcoming challenge of your growth exceeding your current space? Will you be forced to find a warehouse further outside New York due to cost?

2) Clearly when creating new products sourcing and building relationships with manufacturers/factories is very important. What are the biggest challenges you face dealing with manufacturers, especially when you're diversifying across different products like jewellery, clothing and supplements? How do you find the middle ground between pricing and quality? I think your general thoughts on this topic could be interesting.

Inspiring work, keep pushing.
