was $90.00 now $29.00 buy two get one freeI mean the discount is fine, but these are really tasteless. Not really a fan of fallen soldiers being used for profit in such gaudy way, they're not a bloody sports team :/
This deal conflicts me on several levels.
First off, it's apparent that some are US designs that have been 'Ozzified', and a good example of that is the $120 hoodie which has a faded Union Jack where the stars of the Stars and Stripes would be.
The Stripes are there still, so not sure if they're trying to point out that the US is adopting Aus as their next state, or it's just poor QA.Secondly, it lists that it donates to charities, but doesn't identify them. When charities such as SoldierOn and Mates4Mates are struggling to make a difference for returned veterans, you'd think they'd be proud to detail who exactly they are supporting.
Thirdly, the photo of the veterans is of South African's marching in Brisbane. Not one slouch hat is present.
Yeah, I know it's being picky and the kid who did the website probably didn't know better, but as any former (or current) member of the forces will tell you, details matter.Finally, with a .com and the Memorial Day banner on the front page, it's not immediately clear if it's an Aussie company or a US one that is selling regionalised clothing. It's only if you look into the FAQ and T&C's, does it become apparent they're an Aussie company, based in Helensvale, QLD
That said..
The designs appear good, if not to my taste, and for those that want to show their patriotic pride, the clothing is nice and colourful.
The irony is that most veterans would probably prefer something more subdued, both from habit and attitude, whereas the US community tends to be more vocal and brash about their military support. In fact, a lot of the statements mirror the US style of clothing that is popular, though happily, not the more extreme ones.
If they brought back their beer stubbies with these designs, might be more amenable to getting a couple.It's an Aussie company trying to do good things, so naturally we're going to bag the shit out of it. But still want it to do well and be a success.
Any support for veterans is a good thing, and I wouldn't knock those that do, but with no affiliation to any charity, which makes me less confident of their intent.
Especially as the company was only formed in July 2018, yet they've donated $21,000 to charities and NGO's.Still, $120 for a freaking hoodie ? Bloody thing better be made out of Kevlar..
Congrats on your first deal post.
Can you list any examples of the bargains to be had in your description.
A lot of members on here devour their young and will rip you to shreds for a post that highlights a sale thats "up to" whatever % off without an available bargain item specifically listed.
