Well, The Johnny Cupcakes Suitcase Tour.

And the good news for all you Cincinnati folks out there, Good ole’ Johnny is coming to our fair city to sling some gear.

For any JC newbies out there, we’re really not talking ‘cupcakes’ in the literal sense here, we’re talking about cupcakes that are the trademark of a clothing line, spearheaded by a guy only known as ‘Johnny.’ That means, cool t-shirt design, hats, sweatshirts, ties, etc., all emblazoned with Johnny’s signature skull and crossbones cupcake logo, somewhere in the design.

If you haven’t read Johnny’s story before, with regards to how this whole t-shirt w/ cupcakes on them, thing got started, the concept of the owner, driving around the country selling shirts out of his car at random shops in different cities might sound a little foreign.

In reality, it isn’t though, because this is how the business got started. It’s pretty fascinating and you can read up on it here:

Story of Johnny Cupcakes

Bottom line, Johnny’s stuff is sweet, his story is inspiring and it’s awesome to see him going back to his roots for his fans. The guy loves his brand and loves finding new ways to connect with, inspire and show his fans some love and this Suitcase Tour is evidence of that.

So, if you want some limited edition JC gear, want to meet Johnny, or just want to hang out at what is sure to be a party, make sure to check out the details about the Cincinnati stopover on May 2.
