Sword & Plough - Turning military gear into civilian fashion

https://video.foxbusiness.com/v/2589439820001/sisters-turn-old-military…

Turning material used to support war into something beautiful/fashionable is pretty badass. I love their "Signature Messenger Bag" (https://www.swordandplough.com/collections/frontpage/products/messenger…), though a bit on the expensive side for my taste. I imagine they'll last for a long time, though.

Ha, I'm actually working on something tangentially related to this that I'm hoping to launch in the next 3 months or so. Though, mine's a bit more business-oriented and less expensive. I'll probably post about it when it comes closer to launch time.

 

Look forward to hearing about it... if it's tangentially related, might be worth reaching out to SP

It's tangential in the sense that it's men's business accessories that combine a clean office look with minor military features, at a good price, direct to consumer over the net. Still finalizing my product line-up, but I'll definitely let the WSO community know whatsup as I move forward and get ready to launch. Pretty exciting stuff that I think will have a good audience here.

 

For sure, definitely look forward to hearing more. Shot you a PM.

Iste vel quae aut. Similique ipsam magnam sit alias in consequuntur cumque. Debitis libero et iusto corrupti.
