0:00.0	It's practically a universal truth that MLM clothing is cheap, plain, or hideously terrible.
0:11.8	While I won't say that every single item on Lula Row is
0:14.8	hideous, this basic white shirt is totally fine I suppose. Some of their leggings are
0:19.7	so bad that whoever made them should be banned from designing anything ever again, and I do mean that.
0:26.2	Even MLMs that don't specialize in clothing have done their sellers dirty with their designs.
0:31.2	Beachbody, I'm looking at you.
0:33.0	Oh, and I haven't forgotten that whole Let's Puke Together T-shirt from years ago.

1:18.6	I think it's a pretty safe bet to say that clothing MLMs are one of the least discussed on my channel and one of the least popular kinds of
1:25.2	MLMs. Fitness, supplements, insurance, makeup, cooking, you can probably think of several
1:31.2	MLMs for each of those without breaking a sweat.
1:33.8	But clothing, where are you to go?
1:36.0	I mean other than Lula Row, are there really any other household names for clothing in the
