"What Makes You Think You're Designers?" | Dragons' Den
Chris Rea and Tom Carson were next into the Den to pitch their clothing brand aimed at youngsters. They're seeking a £75,000 investment in exchange for 15% of their business.
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

So he's selling these at £59.99 and claims that to be half the price of his competitors which means the next cheapest onesie on the market is £120. I have never, ever seen a onesie priced at over a hundred pounds so I would love to know where they are doing their market research. I'm so over idiots like this that think they can iron a logo onto the front of some pre made fruit of the loom crap and call themselves fashion designers. It's embarrassing

I was all onboard until they said the price. Onesies are super popular at Uni, but people buy them for like £20 max from Primark. They would have been better going cheap and cheerful and then lots of designs and colours and said students will want them all.

I know he did take 40 percent but Duncan is usually pretty fair, I read that by 2019 he had sold back all of his den investments back to the original companies. I hope those guys made it work with him
I dont believe this brand ever hit the big time, like Superdry or Jack Willis, but I do fear the shelf life of university brands. Give them 4-5 years, and few fresh intake of students, and there be a hot new brand, looking to sell to the freshmen students.

Logical idea, but unfortunately it didn’t come to mind under pressure.
Update, they founded a field hockey equipment company, Y1 that seems to still be doing well. The holding company they formed to own it has like 600k in the bank in 22
So it's the past Dragon, Simon Woodroffe, who owns Yo Sushi and the trademark YO.

That's exactly what I was thinking - a third each.
They should have come back with the offer to be equal partners... 33.33% each - Duncan would have been happy to keep them incentivised but also it would have given them 10% more each. It's a fair deal and I believe he'd have compromised on that basis.
Clear-headed, well-prepared young men. Great pitch! Wish them the best of luck.

I miss cheeky Duncan sometimes.
Seems like university companies have the most potential, mainly because the founders are more likely to be like minded individuals surrounded by people who they can naturally uptake ideas from, all you really need is to create a brand that appeals to those people ur surrounded by.
Is it only me that hears the thuglife music when Duncan puts the sunglasses on
I'd suggest Y1s but that's a bummer. Shows how crucial it is to check all that beforehand.
Kelly thought the Onesie would last... I actually like Kelly but she wasn't right there. Nobody wears Onesies now.
8:02 Most important part of the pitch.
There is something incongruent in the suits they wear and in that they wear suits to promote their anti-formal wear. The whole pitch has a disturbing and unreal quality about it.

What happened to the Onesie Boys after the Den: They decided to decline the offer after the show. The YoungOnes company status shows that it's been dissolved on August 17th 2021. Interestingly, their website is still operational! Not only that, but it also has a "Copyright 2022" on it, and their Instagram account is still making posts. Through their website, I've found out that they have a company called "Y1 Sport" now, so it seems that they've just consolidated everything under it. Don't quote me on that, I just spent 10 minutes doing a google search.

3:57 the same question could be asked of Kelly Hoppen.
According to their Facebook page the lads decided after the show that they did not want to give away 40% of the company and pulled out of the deal with Duncan Bannatyne. Although the company (YoungOnes Apparel Ltd) was dissolved in 2021 Chris Rea and Tom Carson together with other shareholders are still trading under the names of Y1Sport Ltd and Y1Group Ltd, they appear to have taken the advise of the dragons and changed the logo from YO to Y1 and Y|1.
