After the massive faux pas made by White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer that featured an incredibly tone-deaf contrast between Assad and Hitler, the the world, especially the Internet, collectively (that also includes Alex Jones) was disgusted.

Nathan Fielder, famed comedian and the man behind Nathan For You and proprietor of Summit Ice, an outdoor clothing company that promotes Holocaust awareness and education, was disturbed as well by the comments. Fielder opted to troll Spicer by sending him one of his jackets that, again, is completely done with the mission that people know about and remember the Holocaust.

This picture and tweet is just the nice, subtle burn that Nathan Fielder is so good at.

Nathan Fielder to Open First Summit Ice Apparel, His Clothing Brand That Promotes Holocaust Awareness and Eduction, Pop-Up Shop

For someone who revels in off-kilter business ideas for the purpose of comedy on Nathan For You, Fielder’s actual business venture seems to be doing quite well.

Nathan Fielder’s is taking his response to Vancouver’s Taiga jackets, the company that wrote up a tribute to a Holocaust denier, to the next level. Initially, Fielder launched a rival outdoor apparel company that promotes Holocaust awareness and eduction (specifically donating to the Vancouver Holocaust Education Center).

Several thousands of dollars have been donated to VHEC and Fielder has just made a $150,000 donation. On top of that, Nathan has announced plans to actually open a pop-up store just for this Sunday, March 26th in Vancouver, the city where Taiga is based, this weekend.

A Fielder business venture wouldn’t be complete without some mischief. With that in mind, he has made this offer:

Greater Vancouver residents are encouraged to come down and trade in any Taiga jacket they have in exchange for a free Summit Ice soft-shell jacket and “Deny Nothing” pin. Donations will also be accepted in exchange for other Summit Ice clothing while supplies last. (Please note: any Taiga jackets collected will be disposed of in a manner deemed appropriate by Mr. Fielder.)

We’d be surprised if Fielder didn’t have something amazing planned for those who can walk into the pop-up shop. After all, Nathan Fielder is the architect behind Dumb Starbucks.

If you want to get your own Summit Ice gear, you can get it now without being in Vancouver here.

Lastly, here’s our other favorite part of this announcement:

If the mayor wants to give Mr. Fielder the Key to the City, please contact: keytothecity@summiticeapparel.com

Here’s proof that Nathan Fielder can actually make business plans that aren’t just elaborate pranks.

Only two months ago, Nathan For You’s Nathan Fielder came out with his own Summit Ice jacket as a response to finding out that his former favorite jacket made by Taiga honored a Holocaust denier. In that time, over $300,000 has been raked in from the jacket going on sale and all the profits are set to go to the Vancouver Holocaust Education Center. At this pace, Fielder has claimed that the sales of Summit Ice will reach a $2.2 million annual gross.

Now that there is a Summit Ice t-shirt and a knit cap available that also raise money for the same cause, don’t be surprised when he’s right.

Is there anything Nathan Fielder can’t pull off?

What started off as an elaborate Nathan For You prank brought about of Nathan Fielder’s disdain for an outdoor wear company Taiga’s tribute to a Holocaust denier has raised a significant chunk of change for the Vancouver Holocaust Education Center to the tune of $45,000 and counting.

On top of that, A-listers like Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Jack Black, Jimmy Kimmel, Ellie Kemper, and more have bought and worn Fielder’s Summit Ice Jacket.

With folks like Nathan Fielder as well as Jon Stewart, John Oliver, and Kurt Braunohler around, one can see just how much good comedy, even at its most absurd, can do in the world.

Hell, or really anyone, hath no fury (because it would never think to come up with their own clothing line that shoe horns in the message that tragedy did happen in order to make up for inadvertently wearing a jacket from a company that honored someone that said that tragedy never happened) quite like Nathan Fielder.

Watch Nathan explain his Summit Ice collection of jackets that spreads the truth that the Holocaust did happen on Conan.
