 New York sports fans, you know this guy. We got Carl Banks for this car. Thank you so much for hopping on the beat Thank you for having me man. I'm honored. I was just saying before we started rolling. How good you look man This is a nice jacket. Well, you know, we try to do it right that starter and we want to embrace the essence of NHL and hockey and what it stands for and what it's all about this piece is Going to be one of our centerpieces for the stadium classic in that life in February But you know, we launched our black ice collection and it's you know It's getting it's a fashion take on the essence of old-school hockey Well before all of this happened you also had some great Starter jackets and you still do but we pulled up a couple of them to go over them because you post them on your social Media counselor ready check them out. Let's go First one dude Jada kiss and the Yankees one. Yeah, that's the Bronx bubble man That's that's the one that the Yankees made famous the late great George Steinbrenner wouldn't let his team take the field without a Yankee starter jacket And you got Jada kissing it man. That's like dude screams New York. Well, that is I mean, it's the Bronx It's it's New York and he's he's one of the voices of the city of a heartbeat of the city So that navy one was sweet and then also too. How can you go wrong with the gray a gray starter jacket? That was also if you find pictures of Joe Tory. He was rocking the gray Yankees jacket So starter, you know has been a part of all American major sports and it's part of the fabric of Making fandom fashionable. I mean it wasn't before the brand. So we you know, we're just continuing the legacy Yeah, I feel like at some point everybody has owned a starter jacket like Spike Lee right here Lee during the world series. We're in a Bronx bubble. He used to wear that one in the piece of her commercials, too Yeah, so it's a lot of fun man But I'm gonna tell you the one that you don't see on there that was the most coveted that I didn't I was not able to get and I was The starter athlete was the heart for wellers That was the sickest logo going. All right. So like I said before we all know you from your football plan days Dude, what what do you think about when you look at this picture? Those are the dog days of training camp at Pace University Bill Parcell's is probably screaming at me in this picture and I'm just like done hearing it But I'm just exhausted. I love that because I don't think anybody would ever have known that based off of Right there. It means that I just got my butt chewed by Parcell's and it's hot. It was probably Big humidity at that time too. So yeah, that was that look right there. Amazing. Well, hey, you still get after to the gym I do I do gym selfies I like to take. Well, I don't like to take gym selfies But that one I took that was after a rumble class. I believe yes, that's right And that was a video too that the sweat was dripping down your nose. Yeah. Well, that's what it's all about You got a stand shape. Yes, sir. All right. So the last couple that we have right here We got DJ Khaled in the starter jacket. We got ti so When you see this like how special is it to you knowing that it just started from something as Smalls it did like everything does to now growing into all different leagues wearing it and now rap stars and music stars Yeah, so the beautiful part about the brand. It is the only non shoe brand that has Transcended sports and pop culture like you can go from any decade from the 80s on You'll see starter jackets and movies you'll see them on entertainers and you'll see them on the field So it is truly transcendent is the brand that transcended because like I said, it was it's a cool brand but it also Made fandom a fashionable and wearable experience. No one ever did it like starter There was no representation of team like you see it in starter and like you said before the culture Here's the final one. I may be biased some of Jersey short dude who loves the devils But dude this picture in front of Marty Brodure at the Prudential Center and what end the fit man is nice Oh, it's beautiful and we were just there shooting our black ice commercial I don't see it I don't know if you see it running on the loop. But yeah, that was that is a great one and we love Marty So we see all these social media posts. What would you say is your favorite part about social media? It gives me a chance to interact with sports fans In a very civilized way. I know it can get a little crazy and toxic That's just not the lane I'm in but the ability to engage sports fans and it's just great for me That's what I love most about it All right So where do you want everybody to go to continue to see all these cool pictures that you post some of the Throwback photos because it definitely brings back a lot of great memories.
