Kitsbow CEO David Billstrom knows his products offer some of the highest quality on the market. That's a blessing for sure, but it also means there's tons of gear out there that's got a lot of life left in it. What a shame it would be for those pieces to end up in a landfill.
That's partly why Kitsbow recently launched its Experienced Apparel store. Anyone who owns Kitsbow clothing they no longer wear can list it on the Kitsbow Experienced Apparel store, and the rest of us bargain hunters can buy used pieces with plenty of life left in them.
It's part of a larger ethos that Billstrom and the rest of the Kitsbow team has been building over the last several years. It's a response to consumer desire for environmental responsibility, not to mention ever-rising costs across all industries.
Billstrom catches us up on Kitsbow's employee ownership structure that launched last year too. It's been a learning experience, but it's starting to show dividends.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
