As someone who has been quite adamant about trying to manufacture items here in NYC, I figured it might be helpful to break down the costs of bringing a project to life. Firstly, you'll have to find the right factory to do the work. In our case, we started in LA (failed), then tried Detroit (failed), and ultimately landed in our backyard in NYC. I will do my best to include every cost of this venture to paint you the most transparent picture possible.
The journey of this bag has been a fun one to watch. Can't imagine the feeling of releasing such a quality item after all of that work! Not to mention everything else you guys create/inspire/marathon training/etc. Nobody does it better.
Not only was this an interesting read, but that code was just what I needed to finally afford/justify purchasing one! I’ve been following your story and the bag’s creation since the start and am so excited to be able to buy one!! Can’t wait to get it! Keep up the great work :-)
I hope the bag doesn’t discourage you. I love the bag so much and use it all the time. I appreciate that you made no concessions and made sure to get it right. It really shows in the quality and price of the product! The breakdown was interesting and should make people appreciate the product and quality that much more.
The details that have gone into this is insane and super admirable. I’ve followed y’all since the very start and always love the products I buy. Keep killing it Milione boys!
A good relationship with a manufacturer goes a long way. The final product shows that. Love the bag

Really appreciate the breakdown, not a lot of brands would do it to their audience.

This is very fascinating. Have always been curious about sampling process, the transparency is appreciated + admirable.
