Joe Freshgoods




Business of HYPE show

Summary: <p>Joe "Freshgoods" Robinson is a designer from Chicago whose quirky collaborations and pun-intended designs have garnered him a cult following. His brick &amp; mortar store, Fat Tiger:<a href="http://www.fattigerworkshop.com/">http://www.fattigerworkshop.com/</a>, is a creative space that hosts pop-ups, workshops and sells an amalgamation of clothes made by various designers. In the past few years Joe has traveled the world showcasing pop-ups for his brand Joe Freshgoods:<a href="https://joefreshgoods.com/">https://joefreshgoods.com</a> and Don't Be Mad:<a href="https://www.dont-be-mad.com/">https://www.dont-be-mad.com/</a> and even collaborating with designers like Snapple and McDonald's. In the season 6 finale, the designer tells us why he feels like Forrest Gump—touching the city through T-shirts, how he became the "Hood CNN", the importance of a slow grind and why he wants to bring Chicago to the world. </p> <p>For more information: hypebeast.com/2019/10/joe-freshgoods-interview-business-of-hype-jeffstaple-episode-59</p> <p>As always, thank you for tuning into <a href="https://hypebeast.com/radio">HYPEBEAST Radio</a> and Business of HYPE.
