Hometown “Sons” on Their Way to the BIG TIME with Vagabond Bowties!
***********FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **********
February 10, 2019
Pottstown, PA natives, Michael Beam and Randal “Duke” Adams, return home to attend the American Handcrafted Exposition on February 16-18, 2019. This exclusive juried event for artisans and craftsman is being presented at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia.
Both 1988 graduates of Owen J. Roberts High School, Adams and Beam are co-founders of the successful Vagabond Bowties brand. The Vagabond Bowties brand has built a strong following in their regional markets and is quickly growing nationally. Based in Youngstown, NY and Harrisburg, PA, the craftsmen at Vagabond Bowties make the Original 4-Way Reversible Bowtie from distinctively sourced, upcycled fabrics. Each one of their hand-made bowties is a uniquely original social and fashion statement. With almost twenty retail partners in four states, the Vagabond Bowties brand has built upon their core mission of “Made in America,” “upcycling” and “support of locally owned businesses.”
Beam said, “The tactile experience of an object—like a bowtie, made singularly by hand, is a richly deserved experience each time the item is worn. Today, more than ever, that quality is sought after by those of refined and well-informed taste.”
Adams said, “The bowtie is a timeless style that evokes a sense of confidence and individuality. I am thrilled to see the diversity of clientele that are wearing our Vagabond Bowties to express their uniqueness to the world. Coming home to the Philadelphia area to grow our brand is a special opportunity that we are truly excited about.”
Adams and Beam are attending the American Handcrafted Exposition to expose their brand –VagabondBowties.com – to an international audience of upscale retailers. With no shortage of sales, they have even picked up a few top-notch celebrity acknowledgements including English Actor Jeremy Irons and award winning writer Anthony Haden-Guest. Additional endorsements may be announced at the event.
