In a
word: Pirate-FANATICS
Were pirtate-a-holics. As long as it has a patch-eye, peg-leg, hook-hand, cutlass & flintlock, has a parrot that squaks "pieces of eight!" or proudly flies the colors of the skull & crossbones WE LOVE IT! You name it recreation fairs, tall-ships festivals, pirate events, riveting swashbuckler films, Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland we love it all! Were also designers and illustrators.
And if there is one thing we have constantly noticed in the world, it is a severe LACK of good pirate stuff to wear out and about in daily life. Every time wed find a maritime shop or an online pirate store its always the same old things: Bad Jolly Rogers on cheap t-shirts and a few other sparse designs that have been Xeroxed so many time they have no EDGE to them anymore. We wanted MORE. We wanted a slick Blackbeard shirt to wear with a hip black sportscoat. We wanted a sexy black tanktop cool enough to wear to a club emblazoned with a GOOD version of the Calico Jack flag! Maybe even some fun original skull & crossbones themed clothing that extended to our individual obsessions sushi, skiing, wine-tasting, cycling, bear-baiting, shark-wrestling, hang-gliding in electrical storms while carrying large amounts of metal...
