James Brooks and Nathan Coleman are the two college friends from RIT behind The Elephant Pants. Their Brooklyn-based retail company makes harem-style pants and gives 10 percent of all sales to organizations that work to prevent elephant poaching in Asia and Africa. An average pair of Harem Pants costs $24. But wait there’s more! The Elephant Pants also makes yoga pants ($28), among other apparel and accessories. (Free shipping on orders $75 and more.)

Brooks and Coleman will pitch The Elephant Pants, which already has impressive $4 million in sales, on Shark Tank (February 24). But will retail guru Daymond John think the brand can get bigger? Shark Tank airs Fridays at 9pm on ABC.
