Once things become popularized and normalized, like it becomes mainstream for athletes to be in a certain way, I think you'll see a lot more.
Yeah, I mean,
Probably some delusion.
Most people would probably scratch their head about decisions like that.
And probably some people that I know that are close to me are probably still scratching their head about some decisions that I've made.
But for me, obviously money is important.
I think that is a great resource to be able to do things that
you know you want to do financial freedom but there's things that i value more than money you know commitment to my community um i think just integrity um it means more being able to have an input you know creatively all these things are things that i will i will weigh when i make my decision and if you are taking away all those things and only
wanting to give me money, you know, or, you know, limiting my voice or something like that, then it doesn't sound like something that might be for Jalen Brown.
Yeah, I've learned so much.
There's been so many ups and downs.
We've had delays.
You know, we've had, you know...
We had things that go in different directions.
We had, you know, we had great victories and things that we were super proud of and things that we want to continue to get better at, just like any company, you know, but to be able to go through that process, I started at 26, 27 years old.
I'm 29 now to be able to understand like kind of the ins and outs of, you know, the sneaker industry.
I've learned a lot about and what I would like to see differently and kind of what I want to provide for the next generation just so they can have an option that's alternative to like what's being presented out there right now.
Right now, largely, you know, artificial metrics dominate our industry.
Bots, you know, fake viral moments, clickbait is kind of what they use as a
as almost a substitute for influence, right?
