How did it start?
"I've worked in construction since the time I was 14 years old. Started my first business when I was 20 years old. I've worn a toolbelt for the majority of my life. I've bought every brand under the sun and never been completely satisfied with them. Then I made SwatClips and everything changed for me and my crew."

Sometimes the past can hold back the future...
Tool belts haven't changed much in over 150 years. 30 years in construction clued us in that there was a better way. So we built it. Tested it. And never looked back.
