This group is relatively new to the area and they are just starting to get into their target markets. The "organic", "farm fresh", and "hand crafted" markets here are just too small for them to really strive like they do in Pennsylvania and New York. They've also been a very closed off community which makes doing business with them difficult to say the least. It definitely looks like the kid is selling himself WAY short though if there are really that many people willing to pay that kind of coin for the quality, and not the name.
I'm going to show him that picture and see if he can push whatever method he weathers his belts and bracelets with that far. :-) [Reply]

I agree - it's critical to look original yet 'assembled' properly - I go out of my way to focus on little things that DO MATTER, whether it's grooming - communicating w/ your barber or if you're talking just raw apparel. [Reply]

ignore the back drop and bullshit lettering - but I bought this vest at TJ Maxx of all places - but it was still $134.99 -- now that Lacoste is priced a little ridiculous admittedly so. But that vest is dope and I had to have it. But $134.99 at TJ Maxx - the tag said $335 or something crazy - it is Down though. so...
