Sun-Staches
Sun-Staches are a fun novelty product that was featured on Shark Tank in 2014. Creators and college buddies Dan Gerson, David Levich, and Eric Liberman developed sunglasses with mustaches attached. The idea started as a way to make fun of a friend who couldn’t grow a mustache, so they attached one to a pair of sunglasses.
The Sun-Stache team paired with Shark Daymond John after he offered them $300,000 for a 20 percent stake in the company. Thanks to their partnership with John, Sun-Staches is sold online, in retailers like Target and Party City, and has a licensing deal with Marvel. In only five months, Sun-Staches grossed $4.2 million in sales.
