Great investment.
Enyce still has brand recognition and it will continue to do so for years.
It survived the Fubu, Mecca, PNB era of early commerical Urban Wear and has emerged as a solid name in the fashion game.
Don't know what the hell Liz Clairebourne was thinking with that initial purchase...but dudes like Jay and Puff have the business smarts and urban insightto find these type of deals at the right price and really turn them into profitable ventures.

Enyce probably clears a good 5-7 million a year. They are in all of the big Urban fashion chain stores
With a little retooling of the brand...he can recoup that money in 2-3 years.
Thats why these dudes are creeping up on Billionaire status and so many of us are living check to check chasing "the cool"....Its about the bottomline not image.

I still have an Enyce polo that I wear on occasion. Nobody's made fun of me yet so I guess it's still a relevant brand

Profits for the brand have been falling recently...but here is the kind of earnings potential and brand recognition that the brand hashad....
Enyce is an American mark of clothing creates in 1996 by Evan Davis, Lando Felix and Tony Shellman. Enyce decides Eh-Born-Chay inreference to the anglophone phonetics of the intiales of New York City : N.Y.C . In 5 years, the mark increased its profits from 6 to 65million dollars. It also diversified its lines of clothing by creating models for women under the name of Lady Enyce and Enyce today became a markrecognized in the American rap mediums.
Claireborn didnt' pay over a 100 million for nothing....Encye was an earner and it can easily get back there...especially with Puff behind the label.

I have a couple of button ups I still keep in rotation. Nothing with the logo everywhere or anything like that though.
I do question why so many people down urban designers now a days and praise the high end designers when they don't want u wearing their clothes anyways.Complete mystery to me...

But y'all forget about Global sales (China, Europe, etc) and Lady Enyce.
I don't know what the exact numbers look like but this looks like a great deal to me.
