USA gear, actually made herešŗšø
New 250th Collection shirts just droppedāļø

I built my first factory with a chainsaw in the woods of Maine.
Today Origin and Jocko Fuel do over $250M a year, 100% made in America.
Bootstrapped. No business degree. Just a college dropout from Maine who refused to quit.
We now run three factories, employ hundreds of people, and build apparel, footwear and supplements on a fully American supply chain.
I get a lot of DMs from founders on bootstrapping and brand building.Ā
So Iām opening a few 1:1 calls on @Intro to help.
What I can help with:
āļø Bootstrapping and scaling without VC
āļø Building a brand, not a commodity
āļø DTC and e-commerce growth
āļø Getting through the $5-50M grind
āļø Grit when it stops being fun
Iām offering 50% off calls through June 30.
Comment āInterestedā and the @Intro team will DM you a link to book.

This is a project weāve been building in the background. A recovery slide made for training days and post Jiu-Jitsu rolls.
Open-toe. Contoured. Cushioned.
Designed to reduce foot strain, improve circulation, and help your body recover faster after hard rounds, hard lifts, and long days.
Built with full-length EVA for real support. Made to relieve fatigue, pain, and plantar stress.
Made to be worn after the work is done.
100% EVA.
100% Made in America.
The best part. The footbed is tatami texture.
Do you wear recovery slides now? Give us your thoughts.

Yesterday I met a man named Mac.
For thirty years heās been rescuing the machines that built America.
The ones that spun and wove and knit when water turned wheels
and steam drove iron.
Some are the last of their kind.
Priceless.
They wove wool for the Civil War.
Denim for the Gold Rush.
Cloth for workers.
And for warfighters.
This is his lifeās work.
And he carries it alone.
The federal government hasnāt stepped in.
North Carolina hasnāt stepped in.
His dream is simple.
A textile museum in North Carolina.
So future generations can see what built this country with their own eyes.
The project is bigger than one man.
But one man is still carrying it.
He needs help.
Tag someone who can move weight.
Tag someone who can light a fire.

This Is What āMade in Americaā Actually Looks Like. Take a tour with me of our North Carolina denim factory. youtu.be/2tU7pr-VPHs?si=D__Rā¦ via @YouTube @ORIGINBJJ

Our North Carolina facility is home to THE LAST at-scale denim wash house in America.
It was nearly lost forever. Another casualty of an industry that shipped everything overseas. We bought it, rebuilt it, and invested millions to bring it back to life.
Today, every pair of Origin jeans moves through this building.
These arenāt just jeans. Theyāre a symbol of resilience, rebirth, and freedom. Proof that American manufacturing still has a future.

I built two brands from the woods of Maine to $200M+ in revenue. Turned down books, speeches, and podcasts.
Now Iām finally talking.
Business, grit, ADHD, capitalism, leadership, Jiu-Jitsu.
