Chase McAnulty: Charlie Hustle <3s KC

Chase McAnulty is the founder &amp; CEO of Charlie Hustle, Kansas City’s signature “vintage made fresh” clothing brand and home of the now-iconic KC heart. Shortly after graduating from the Kansas City Art Institute and getting a "real job" he didn’t particularly like, the entrepreneurial-minded Chase moved back into his parents basement and emerged as “Charlie Hustle.” No, not that Charlie Hustle — the Charlie Hustle who built the KC proud vintage t-shirt company. From Ebay to brick and mortar, Chase tells the story of the birth of the company, its meteoric rise with help from KC legends like Paul Rudd and Jason Sudeikis, and all that the brand has in store for the future. Inspired by his late mother, Chase has also made sure the brand’s success benefits the entire community through the 1K for KC foundation, a partnership with Big Slick and other philanthropic causes. It’s the dream story of passion and hard work paying off - not just for Chase, but for our city as a whole.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
