Coalatree has emerged as a very hot, trending, 90s-style clothing and gear company that is crowd-funded and eco-minded. J.M. Fabrizi is Head of Brand at Coalatree, and has led much of their crowd-funding effort, which has brought in more than $2M in backing across a number of campaigns: from their fabulously-popular Trailhead stretchy climbing pants, to their Evolution Hoodie which is made from recycled coffee beans. In this episode, our own Brig Graff interviews J.M. to get insights into how the Coalatree brand has carved itself a coveted brand positioning in the market, and how they have turned crowd-funding backers into long-term fans of the Coalatree brand.
