  50. Name your new plaids after the various States of the United States. The green would be Vermont for all the green trees in Vermont. The yellow would be Arizona or New Mexico depicting all the beautiful desert. Now you have another 48 names for the future. Maybe a blue plaid for Hawaii depicting the ocean around those islands.

My 4 year old grandson and me where our partridge plaid Stormy Kromer hats all the time. He sleeps in his. Anyway I am all USA made and my skill is museum quality. I am presently doing a bunch of stuff for k9soldiers.org to benefit the War Dogs. My sculpture is under “Current Projects” A Stormy Kromer hang tag with your logo or something as I love you product and the American Made deal. Call me, you guys really have a great brand. 401 339-5897 24/7 Let’s talk.
