He started the company when he was 9 or 10. lol

He was also featured on Shark Tank and has been involved with PR events for the NBA before, since he is a huge Grizzlies fan.

I'm not saying there isn't a time and place for bow ties, but I feel comfortable saying the vast majority of times someone is wearing a bow tie they are an rear end in a top hat.

Like, at least be wearing a tuxedo and not some button up short-sleeved denim shirt with your orange shorts.

Bow ties are a sign that you want to be seen as hip and different only after a sizable number of other people start doing it.

Or you are a 60+ year old man that wears tweed suits to go to the grocery store and still remember the days when flying was an occasion.

Similarly, I can't pull off wearing a flat-brim and/or stiff crown hat. Which is a shame, because they tend to have the coolest designs.

Kanye West and the NBA dress code took """"""Urban"""""" dressing out of the maternity t-shirt phase and that's something to be endlessly thankful for, even if it lead to a lot entry level top to bottom this season runway looks and embarrassing vests

EJ doesnt look particularly good in a bow tie, but he doesn't look particularly good in anything. Skinny bald old is not a good look for anyone
