Unapologetic AAPIs Hit Prime Time
From streetwear to Shark Tank, this moment is bigger than sneakers. It’s about showing up, standing out, and making noise for the next generation of creators, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.
We built 1587 from the ground up—and now, we're stepping into one of the biggest arenas in business. Watch the official preview of our Shark Tank appearance below and get a glimpse into the hustle, the heat, and the heart that fuels everything we do.
Why We Did It
We didn’t go on Shark Tank just to get a deal—we went to make a statement. To show the world what happens when culture, creativity, and commitment collide. To prove that the underdog can win. And to put a spotlight on the movement that’s been building from day one. Also, we are proud we didn't piss ourselves on national tv :)
