- Beyond China
In 2017, the brand began to think global, starting to show their designs at international fashion weeks, including New York, Milan and London.[3] In 2024, the company invested in Canadian outdoor brand Moose Knuckles, buying a 30% stake in the company.[4][5][6] In July of that year, the company showed their "Fusion" collection in Paris.[7]
In May 2025, the company gained attention when Bloomberg erroneously reported the company's market cap to be worth more than $6,000 trillion USD, valuing it as the world's most valuable company.[8]
