I thought I'd take the time out today to tell you guys a bit more about me and Ian & our MTB brand X5cape, so here goes. A Few years ago I (Laura) quit my job as a manager of a musical instrument store to go it alone and start my own company, in order for me to do this Ian continued to work as a bar manager to help support us while I started my business. after a couple of years of failed companies and massive losses I decided to start a discount cosmetics company selling everything from makeup to fragrance to skin care. This business then started to grow & become very successful, due to recent success Ian was able to quit his full time job & start to work for our company full time too, business was going well & continuing to grow, at this point we decided we would reinvest our earnings rather than take a bonus & start a mountain bike related company, something we are both passionate about. After months off planning & organising we settled on a clothing company made for mountain bikers, as both of us focused on fashion & design throughout school & college (we went to the same collage *awwww*) & were very creative this made sense & we knew we were on to a winner of an idea. But, instead of manufacturing & importing all of our clothing from outside of the UK we decided that a personal touch was needed & we invested in the equipment needed to manufacture our own clothing in house ourselves. From design to print to packaging every step is done in house by us (but mainly Ian).
