How EightFifty Co. Started
Β Β Β Our journey began in 2020 when David Caron, founder of EightFifty Co., made a life changing decision to follow his true calling. Despite having a promising career in the construction field and being a member of the local Laborer's Union, David knew deep down that he wanted to combine his love for graphic design and snowmobiling to create his own path to become part of the snowmobile industry.
Β Β Β Driven by his passion, David relearned graphic design after not doing it for 10 years, dedicating countless hours to online classes and videos. By the end of 2020, he took the leap and established EightFifty Co. in Connecticut, embarking on the journey of building an apparel brand.
Β Β Β In the early days, David designed all the apparel himself and relied on print-on-demand services to bring his creations to life. However, he quickly realized that the results didn't meet our high standards. Determined to deliver nothing but the best to our customers, David made a bold decision. He set up his own printing facility, investing in screen printing equipment and taking full control of the production and shipping process.
Β Β Β As of January 24, 2023, we officially have trademarked EightFiftyco
Β Β Β At EightFifty Co., we firmly believe in prioritizing quality over quantity. Each piece of our apparel is screen printed on a manual press and printed on premium clothing that not only fits amazing but also feels incredibly comfortable. We take immense pride in our work, and it brings us great joy to create products that you'll love wearing.
The Future of EightFifty Co.
Β Β Β Weβre just getting started. The next chapter is all about upgrading equipment to improve quality, expanding collaborations, attending more events, and spending more time on the snow. Our goal is simple! To keep creating, connecting, and doing our part to help the snowmobile industry grow.
Β Β Β We invite you to join our snowmobiling community and share your adventures with us. Tag or DM us on social media with your photos wearing our apparel, and we will share them on our website and social media accounts. Your experiences and stories fuel our inspiration, and we are grateful for your support.Β
