I had a chance to meet Ronnie at his pop-up shop at Colette in Milan, and dude was so humble and down to earth. He even dropped some knowledge on us. This episode is amazing!
His state of mind is amazing but more so I'm impressed by what he does as far as his vision.. I want this for myself; to know exactly what I'm doing to a T and where I'm going so this way there really are no mistakes!! He simply gets it, he is truly ingrained into what he see's for himself. He had a perfect path to just simply follow his heart and there are no mistakes just lessons.
jon candelaria crazy to think it was because he wanted a pair of Reebok’s and his mom got him ASICS instead, and now ASICS are worth way more and are more popular than any Reebok’s shoes
Beautiful. The video editors at Complex are really worth their salt. It was great to hear from a man possessed. I was ready to drop everything and help Ronnie with whatever he needed by the end. Thanks, Noah!
In terms of influential business folk people mention Virgil, but this guy Fieg is so understated yet built himself up from the dirt. Super inspiring... big up Complex
This man is a legend and this interview is amazing. A key point I connected with the most is around 23:33 The way we talks about redefining situations and making something original is brilliant. "All these terms, and how things are usually explained- are based off the way things are done in the PAST, the way things are usually done. But there isn't anything usual about what we do."
RF didnt exactly say it but when asked about competing he said he doesnt look left and right.... losers focus on winners, winners focus on winning - Michael Phelps said it...
Black culture makes a America. From food to Tech to Clothing. Smh I fuck with these creators it sucks the ppl who make shit cool don't really get a chance. That's it.

How & why he was featured in Wall St. Journal would've been a good ask considering that's how he moved the rest of his first order?

Not single handedly, but yes he was a big influence on the return.

OMG IM FIIIIIIIRST HAHHAHAHAHAIAHAJAJAHAHAHHAHSHSHEHSHAHAHAHAH
Sadly I think Ronnie will cave in at some point like Nigo and Jebbia and just take the money.
When it stops being fun like he said he probably will but he only has 6 years in so i doubt it will be anytime soon.
