Because of course I started a podcast. The NY Denim Hangs Podcast pulls the curtain back on the global denim industry and shares the stories of the people that make it.
The beginning of 2020 picked up where 2019 left off, with lots of progress. Then news of the coronavirus reaching the United States began to spread, and on its heals a new reality set in.
When I met Tyler, the founder of Home Field Advantage Goods, I immediately connected with him. When I saw his exceptional craftsmanship, suggesting a collaboration to create an all-American leather + selvedge denim wallet was a no-brainer. And so the Bleecker Bifold wallet was born.
I recently had the opportunity to be interviewed by two peers in the denim industry - Kelly Harrington and Will Varner. I met them both in person at this year's Denim Days festival and we've stayed in touch ever since. This was a treat for me, and allowed me to look back on the past five years and remember how I got here.
