They're a little too, I don't know...familiar? Creepy? But my wife, she loves robes...and she always looks so damn comfy.
Flashback to 2016 – I was in the shower staring at her all snug in her robe, jealousy creeping in. I remember thinking, “I like to be comfy too...but what can I wear? Not a robe, that's for sure.”
"I’d wear a towel, but towels look… weird. Why hadn’t robes evolved? Why are men's robes just like women's?"
I glanced at a hoodie hanging next to my towel and I thought, "I’d wear a towel if it looked like a hoodie.” What if there was a robe made just for dudes, by dudes, and only for dudes?
So, I just threw on some clothes, hit up Walmart, grabbed a bunch of towels, and headed straight to my tailor, Josè. Stared right into his eyes and popped the question: "Can you make these towels into a hoodie and sweatpants?"
And just like that, a week later, I'm rocking this crazy-absorbent hoodie and pants combo.
One prototype after another, I thought, "Why not put this on Kickstarter?" Fast forward to June 2017, we hit our funding goal in just 2 days.
One week after we launched, the head of casting of Shark Tank said she wanted to talk. And the rest is history, my dude!

But Howie's innovation doesn't stop there. He's not your average inventor. He transforms everyday ideas into extraordinary products.
