Loving that Delonte tee...actually stopped by the iLthy store - love the whole set up and design. Proud to have something like this created in Cleveland.

I feel that the donuts represented a good part of marketing, it was easy to advertise, and he's been successful with it for years now. It all goes back to Delonte's trademark saying to J.J. in 2008 when he was a rookie: "You betta have my do-nuts!" etc. Unsure about the linsanity thing, but anytime you have a chance to market something, you give it a shot then move on. Glen's a great marketer in the hip hop business, so I don't see this making him crumble in the least.

huber14, the Lin tee's did really well. We are actually pretty much out of them right now. I had a hunch that the hype would die fast, but it was great to get it out there and test the market.
rabman_gold is absolutely right. The donut theme is paying homage to the original Brotha Red's donut shirt, that was actually released here on RCF.

In the words I received when I asked what happened to the RCF discount, "We're not a Cleveland based streetwear company anymore. We're global. Can't make money giving discounts to friends."
Then after 4 online orders in a row fucked up, I quit buying. Hate to say it, but with the rep ILTHY is building now, I don't see it lasting another 2 years.

Shots fired and the war is ended. Glen responded to me personally instead of letting his cohorts reply. All is good, and I've got another $300 sitting aside for the next line drop.
I think of it this way. I make maybe $16k a year legally. I spend at least $2k a year on ILTHY. I deserve to have my voice heard, and it was.

Thank you everyone for the support so far. We are releasing our new line later this month. Let me know what you guys think?

Really liking a couple of the shirts and the hat. Still kicking myself for never buying the West donuts shirt when you first started. I wish I wore hats more often so I knew how sizing worked. I have a small head so who knows.
I bought one of these a month or so ago. I don't think I've had comments on more shirts than that one. People love it. They had a bunch in the store so he may still have some.
