EP255: The Reality Behind Having A Menswear Brand ft. Alan Taylor founder of Bad Arm Baseball

In today's episode, I'm joined by Alan Taylor, founder of Bad Arm Baseball, for an honest conversation about building a menswear brand from the ground up. We discuss how menswear has evolved over the years, the changing landscape of fashion, and why fashion education may need to adapt to better prepare the next generation. Alan shares his journey into the industry, including the challenges of entering a world he knew little about and learning through experience along the way. We also explore the reality of starting your own brand. While entrepreneurship can seem exciting from the outside, we talk openly about the financial pressures, uncertainty, and fears that come with taking that leap. From worrying about finding a job to creating your own opportunities, Alan reflects on the resilience and mindset needed to navigate the ups and downs of building a business. It's a conversation about creativity, risk taking, personal growth, and what it truly takes to turn an idea into a brand. Whether you're interested in fashion, entrepreneurship, or pursuing your own path, this episode is packed with valuable insights and inspiration.
