A Note From The Host: This week’s podcast dives into fashion, one of my favorite subjects, as I speak to a founder who is changing the face of kidswear. No dinosaurs and trucks; no unicorns and rainbows---the Young Days brand is way out of the box in a sea of homogeneity that is the children’s clothing market. Young Days comes right out and tells you, ‘We are the cool kids on the playground emulating the effortless street-style cool of our parents.’ Co-founder Jeremy Fischer tells the story of one of my favorite brands, one that he launched with his father. And while his family has had 50 years of experience in the business, you’ll listen to Jeremy’s passion and mission for doing things his own way, and on his own path. For example, he found one of his key creative employees on LinkedIn, an apparel and textiles designer with a quilting background who brings the keen sense of color and pattern to the brand. You’ll hear Jeremy state, ‘I don’t want to be a 100-million-dollar brand’. With a longtime front row seat to how garments are often produced, Jeremy and Young Days keep sustainability top of mind. You’ll hear how a deep love of children and family is at the core of this business, which brands inspire Jeremy personally, the learning curve he experienced in photographing corrals of kids as the face of his brand, and the unique Young Days unisex vibe that makes these clothes pass-downable, kid-to-kid.
