Frank Foolery sell apparel such as tees, sweats, etc, targeting Millennials. Their merch is intended to be humorous as it feels like it speaks to those "aha" moments growing up as a millennial.
The company was going to be revamping their overall branding. They had already set forth a creative direction for their products, content, and overall brand experience.
