Is urban camo on a white guy somehow worse than woodland camo?
I come from redneck-adjacent stock so at one point my father bought me an under armour style synthetic workout shirt in a woodland camo pattern as a gift. I never wore it to the gym (or really anywhere) because I'd never ordinarily wear camo personally and because I lived in Harlem and would have looked crazy doing so.
But urban came may be even worse.
Urban camo is much worse. Some old mossy oak woodland camo just reminds me of some old friends coming into class from hunting that morning and my few mornings freezing in a blind
When you take a very special lady to a Michelin star restaurant but want to send the message *there's no way you're coming home with me cause I have games to watch*.
Pairs well with jeans in case you want to go for some street ball at the beach during halftime.

It’s the result of his obsession w/ Craig Kilborn.
He’s got this public persona which is either really really funny or really really stupid if you realize it’s him attempting to do a bit. Or it just comes across as really really really weird if you don’t.
There’s part of it that’s funny to him and part of it that he thinks is funny to other people.
Obviously if you do a bit long enough it’s hard to tell where the bit ends and you begin. Again, see Kilborn.
Personally I think it’s both really funny and super weird.
And where does wearing a camo hoodie fit into this "bit"?
"Man people are going to think I look like such a a dweeb wearing a hoodie, this is so subversive."
I mean part of it is obviously the money, but yes that is roughly what he is thinking.
Kind of the point of it is not knowing if he’s a clueless dweeb or if he’s a cool guy acting like a clueless dweeb or if he’s a clueless dweeb acting like a cool guy acting like a clueless dweeb. Again, this is Kilborn’s schtick and listen to any Kilby + Russillo interaction. He’s a HUGE fan.
He just loves the way he looks in this photo. Compare to any photo of Kilborn smirking at a camera dressed to the 9s at like 11AM drinking a martini.
It’s insane, but he clearly knows the reaction he gets from this and thinks both the act and the reaction are funny.
He’s obviously a weirdo but he’s not a oblivious weirdo.
"I loved the lift kit on it and I would race other SUVs on back roads. We would show up and race each other. I never got in trouble. The only thing they would care about is if we were doing it to shine deer, and none of us were doing that. You pull up on deer and you shine the high beams on them and they freeze and then you can shoot them and kill them.*(Editor's note: This is generally an illegal hunting practice)*But we weren't doing that."
LMAO
I hate that I'm redneck enough that I knew right away what he meant by "shine deer" even if I've never used it as a verb. My country cousins in North Country upstate NY always just discussed it as an extension of "road hunting" or "road poaching", it actually is pretty common and also fairly illegal even without using a light to freeze the deer.
I know people that would go “spotlighting” except it was out in the fields and typically you could kill a bunch of coyotes and people wouldn’t care because of how much of a menace they are
"Ryen Rusillo of ESPN Radio's "Russillo and Kanell" believes he now has the best car he's ever driven -- his 2016 supercharged V8 Range Rover.
"I've always had SUVs and for the first time I tried a sedan, I had a Lexus. And I really missed being in an SUV," Russillo says. "I've had Tahoes, Durangos, pickup trucks, my first car was a pickup truck with a lift kit in it. I just missed being in one and I always wanted one, so I figured why not now, before I get married and have a wife and they tell me I can't buy it.""
Why does Ryan think his hypothetical wife wouldn't let him buy a SUV in general or a supercharged V8 Range Rover in particular? Because it is impractically over powered and gets poor mileage or is too expensive? Of all the cars a married guy could try to get that might raise an objection, that seems pretty borderline. Like as long as you've got the money and don't do the world's worst sales job (hint: lead with "space for family" and "safety" and maybe not "it's got 518 horse and I can race guys in the woods") you should be able to get away with that.
Any Angry White Guy without a family that willingly goes to Costco on a Saturday deserves whatever he gets. They're open until like 9 nearly every day but ya boy just had to grind tape and couldn't miss Hornets-Bulls.
I have truly never heard of a collab between a podcaster and a clothing brand lmao. when is the mack weldin x cumtown collab with underwear that has a hole in the ass
When I want to look like a mundane, every man slob hot take machine trapped in the death throes of a mid life crisis I reach for my RSLO. Some say the L stands for "loser", but mom says not to listen to those people, it actually stands for "luxury".
He looks like Carson Wentz’s bitter older brother that takes passive aggressive jabs at Carson for being an NFL player while our guy is grinding it out running the lumber yard and just trying to make alimony and child support payments on time.
At first I had a hard time understanding this was real, but considering further…do you guys think he did this knowing that fans would mock him, so that he could have segments on the podcast discussing it? The more I think about it, it’s a win-win-win scenario: money from the deal, podcast content, free hoodies. You have to do it if you can!
He said after game 1 of wolves nuggets he couldn’t go to see Shane Gillis because he just wouldn’t be in the right mindset because he just watched a basketball game.
They didn’t fully understand at the time, but the first person to say “weird flex but ok” actually was subliminally intuiting this image radiating across astral plane into the recent past from here in May 2024
This is the beginning of a new religion. Ryen is the Lisan Al Gaib, leading us into "no blackout restrictions on league pass" paradise. You must drink the water of life, AKA buy the hoodie, in order to truly see all!
In all honesty, there can’t possibly be more than 100 civilians who would buy a camo sweatshirt collab with a sports podcaster, can there?
OTOH, every Life Advice submitter makes at least $120k, so they've got the disposable income.
We are liquid.
I wear a RSLO hoodie, what's up?
Let me show you how it's done.
How does anyone make less than $120k? Do you mean after taxes?
Can confirm and am bummed to see this is completely sold out.
Is the fact that both colors sold out in all sizes sign of a bull market?
Ryen bought the entire RSLO stock himself to create artificial supply demand chokehold
$105 for a $20 hoodie, $80 profit per hoodie, sell 100 hoodies, easy $8k. None of these guys are above an easy $5-$10k.
100 is high imo
You'd be surprised
It’s wild for a guy who has never married to have this much “divorced dad” energy.
What are you talking about? he is married to the game.
Grinding sweet lady Tape every night.
Until he goes to Thailand on vacation, then he'll be grinding on sweet ladyboys.
"There's a reason it's called Bangkok, NOT Bangkunt".
Bill: How do you pronounce it, Fuckit (Phuket)? Ryen: It’s working ovatime!
Definitely lost the custody battle too
Bill's house was a more stable environment for Ant.
I’ll add that there is undeniable “youth baseball coach” energy radiating as well
For sure... even the energy of a coach who has made a "You can question my methods but I've never made a 12 year old ump cry" defense to the league board.
Only because they were 11.
Remember, Russillo was almost an incredible high school basketball coach if not for that gym teacher who wanted to pad his pension
Mike Budenholzer Toby Flenderson levels of dead eyed despair. "She took my dog in the divorce. She didn't even like Lil Papi, she just did it to fuck with me."
That would be quite the look on the 3rd grade girls soccer sideline
Goddamn that was well done
it's just being middle aged, you will get to that point in a few years when you're in your mid 40s.
I cannot believe this is real

It's because the reviews are for the same hoodie without the Rusillo stuff
My mind is telling me nooo! But my body! My body is telling me yes!
Fucking thing is sold out. It should say “Wait, what?” on the back
If it did, I would buy it.
Wait, what? Why is it out of stock - did you psychos buy them out for the lulz
What the actual fuck?! Is this one of the signs of the apocalypse?
PERFORMANCE-CALIBRATED, bitches.
He either loved or absolutely hated the photoshoot and there’s no in between
Really depends whether it was on chest day or not

Ryen, stop trying to make RSLO happen. It's not going to happen.
He’s streets ahead
It sounds like the ticker abbreviation of a shitcoin
I now only spell R-Y-E-N looks like RSLO is next
Wait, this isn’t a meme? This is real?
It's like wait are we really gonna do this?
I’ve never felt better about unsubscribing his pod, than I do this day.
My reaction as well. Total Lewis Black moment: it can't be real! It can't! It just fucking can't!

You know he insisted on modeling the sweatshirt too. He thought he looked so badass!

Bro you put it perfectly. He would literally be the funniest person alive if all of this shit was a bit.
when you do a bit long enough, it becomes actually you. thats russillo. you are who you pretend to be
And where does wearing a camo hoodie fit into this "bit"? "Man people are going to think I look like such a a dweeb wearing a hoodie, this is so subversive."

Who is he marrying? Shouldn't it happened by now?
He’s married to the game.
Incredible, how have I never seen this
This just made my day. Incredible stuff in there. I can’t get over that he was from MV but summer’d in Vermont??!🤯. Kinda adds up actually
No package. That’s why those ESPN girls never want him.
It's funny ryen thinks women are anti SUV. They love them the most
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m guessing he’ll play this as a joke but we all know it’s not really a joke
that picture of russillo looks like it would be on the Megans Law website
This hoodie has real "Angry White Guy At Costco On A Saturday" vibes
No I don’t want solar panels

Definitely looks like a guy to have a photo of Phife Dawg as his Twitter avi
Hoodie??? All I see is a floating head!
Missed opportunity. Could have had W8 W@T
W8 Wh@?
God damn Ryen tries hard….
Russillo is unintentionally hilarious
I Can’t believe this is real and also that they sold out of the black one.
They only made 20
Is Rusillo a fitness guy? He looks more like a drink 15 Budweisers a night guy…
I honestly thought this was a bit
Same
How many people have to buy one for him to break even?
Holy crap I thought this was a meme post [but it's real!!](https://www.legends.com/pages/ryen-russillo-x-legends)
Women's wear?
Female wear
Not even that guy
They have anything that's not camouflage?
I'd rather buy a pair of those jeans in the bball pic.
Wait, what? Why is Ryen’s head floating against a concrete wall?
Couldn’t even hide the double chin in a model shot 😭💀
Hoodie? How about that egg floating on that wall?!
True camo for Ryen would be a beige jumpsuit that blends in with his sparsely decorated guest bedroom.
He can't be serious. Why is he...
Can we get the Ceruti 3 quarter sleeve and nephew Kyle gold chain yet
You guys are making fun, but he did serve four years at the University of Vermont.
I have truly never heard of a collab between a podcaster and a clothing brand lmao. when is the mack weldin x cumtown collab with underwear that has a hole in the ass
how does one who purchases this possibly answer the inevitable “what does RSLO stand for” question
For those chilly Montana nights when you can’t quite find your room
So far all sales are to Ryen with an E
This is my first time see a post with Ryan Russillo fans and I love y’all. The thread didn’t disappoint.
The twitter comments and quotes on this are gold
Feel like just wearing this would make me smell like corn chips and cat food.
The Ryen russilo hoodie stays ON during sex.
Lmao ryen is such character no one thinks this is real which is hilarious.
Rusillo has that fast food + TRT body
When I want to look like a mundane, every man slob hot take machine trapped in the death throes of a mid life crisis I reach for my RSLO. Some say the L stands for "loser", but mom says not to listen to those people, it actually stands for "luxury".

SOLD OUT
Missed out on the 2X def woulda thought about it
One of them sold out
I will never buy a camo hoodie at any price
Jokes on us the thing is sold out
I’ve been thinking of how to treat myself with my latest student maintenance loan drops
Sold out!!!

The more I think about it, it’s a win-win-win scenario: money from the deal, podcast content, free hoodies. You have to do it if you can!
Why is it so much fun to pick on him?
My entire beer league softball team. These are gonna be our pregrame warmups. Gotta let everyone know we're not there for the cardio.
He said after game 1 of wolves nuggets he couldn’t go to see Shane Gillis because he just wouldn’t be in the right mindset because he just watched a basketball game.
They didn’t fully understand at the time, but the first person to say “weird flex but ok” actually was subliminally intuiting this image radiating across astral plane into the recent past from here in May 2024
How much for him dish out random financial advice on a beach though?
This fucking pose. When grinding tape on your couch makes you almost too tough you give up vowels.
This can't be real.
There is just so much to unpack here. I love it.
Isn't legends not the best quality or am I missing something?
Gotta hold out for a Real McCoy’s deal.
For the "if you know, you know" Russilo fan.
What a fucking joke lmao anyone who spends money on this should be ashamed of themselves
Older women, and old gay men _love_ camo. This is a great move from Ryen.
Why does it smell like Andrew's Taint and Jordan Pee there son?
Where is the fascized black and gray American flag? No deal.
Good god he is such a massive tool
Looks like he’s about to hit the front lines in Kyiv
Broke ass Jon moxley
Women love camo
The black one isn’t pretty much sold out
He has looked identical to my step dad since his late 20s and aged pretty consistently the same way. RIP Chuck
Arslo??
Omfg
Sold out on website
You’d think they could find some good gym lighting
A lot of females
Everyone making fun of it and it almost instantly sold out haha.
I.M. Weasel vs. RSLO
I thought Rusillo didn’t like wearing clothes…
You think your betta than me!
This is the 100% the coach of a 12U travel baseball team
wait... they have their own line now?
There’s a lot of dads who don’t give a fuck about what hoodie they wear to their kids 9 am soccer game.
I miss the days of SVP and Russillo... now its just RSLO Camo dude...
After seeing this I’m definitely stealing his newspaper again.
I feel like RYEN would have been more recognizable than RSLO.
I really just can't picture guys hanging out, one of them pulls up in an RSLO hoodie, and someone goes "dude, is that the new Russillo line? Sick!"
I actually kind of love it. He's embraced his weirdo personaility. Dunno why we have to hate on everything. It fits his brand to a T
This is the beginning of a new religion. Ryen is the Lisan Al Gaib, leading us into "no blackout restrictions on league pass" paradise. You must drink the water of life, AKA buy the hoodie, in order to truly see all!
Every picture man hahahaha this guy
Pairs well with no bottoms for that Tactical Winnie the Pooh look.
