Karl Kani: Godfather of Urban Streetwear

from The Art of Manufacturing · host Krisztina Holly

At age 16, he made himself his first suit. At 21, he headed to L.A. to launch a career. 27 years later, Karl Kani is still a legend for his pioneering urban streetwear brand. But after an ill-fated partnership almost lost him the rights to his own name, he's back to work, rebuilding his $100M hip-hop fashion empire one bold step at a time. We hear stories of grit and creativity, learn from his business mistakes, and find out what it takes to build an enduring brand. More here: http://makeitinla.org/podcast/karlkani
