TALES FROM THE BUNKER | SPRING / SUMMER // VOLUME 2 // BLOG/NEWSLETTER | RAMBLINGS

Hi folks,


Here at Steely Eyed HQ we are glad that spring is here and the summer sun is just around the corner. Hope you enjoyed the introduction to us and the brand. Being new, very small but unique has a Ying and yang build to it. Promotion of the brand is paramount to us as is delivering a quality product to our customers. This incorporates finding an environmentally and ethically sourced high quality fabric for us to use. Add a high quality screen print set up that us as a business and consumer are happy with and we have a perfect storm. There are several avenues we could of went down regarding this but a poor quality garment with a cheap and inferior print set up is not what we are as a brand like or want to portray to the world. This agenda is also relevant in our packaging as we are try to promote recycling and recycled material. We at Steely Eyed try to keep our prices competitive and realistic. We are not in this to make money. Far from it. We at Steely Eyed HQ believe in the brand and its ethos. Steely Eyed is far bigger than us. We are just the start of something beautiful, something to believe in. When we become dust on this spinning rock the Steely Eyed ethos will still be prevalent in its own terms and conditions.


WHAT’S FRESH?


We at Steely Eyed HQ want to hear about it and your adventures. Big or small, every adventure has a tale to tell and a Steely Eyed determination to finish it. Send us your stories & photos and we will try a feature your tale. The dirtier the better.


THE ENVIRONMENT AND US


At Steely Eyed HQ we also understand that the human race is rapidly destroying the planet and we are all involved. So anything we can do to help or hinder the destruction is a small plus. We have tried to incorporate a no plastic policy in our packaging and use eco-friendly products. We do try and source our clothing ethically and look for the WRAP certified production of products http://www.wrapcompliance.org/en/home

STEELY EYED LIFESTYLE


The Steely Eyed Lifestyle is greatly influenced by music. Here at Steely HQ we have an eclectic taste in sounds. Be it ambient layers of beats that flow easily through the mind and mirror the local rolling landscapes that haunts our vision. Or a banging mix of house /hip hop/ indie that ignites the night and helps us to hold hands with the early dawn. Music is the soul of how we feel so thank funk that we have some talented and cool DJ friends who take their influences from a variety of musical genres and are happy to share their intimate moments on the decks with you.


We have had a DJ set from the talented R.T. Cass https://soundcloud.com/ryancass Which opened our account then at the New Year we had just taken delivery of a storming mix up from the legend that is Robot 84 https://soundcloud.com/robot84 Keep your peepers peeled for more mixes and sets from the local and not so local producers/DJ’s that keep us watered and fed with quality sounds.


STEELY EYED SHINDIGS. WHAT WE ARE UP TO?


Racing news: We do like to throw our hats into the fight and race from time to time but due to injury and time constraints we have been fairly quiet these passing months.


But we have been working on a big “muckle “day loop that starts and finishes in Langholm. The home of Steely Eyed. This loop consists of road, fire road, single track, trail center and magnificent views, climbs and descents.


In the future these bad boys are looming,





CHILLING AT STEELY EYED HQ!


At Steely Eyed HQ we love to kick back and chill with either a good film or book accompanied by a good brew or beer. Every month we will highlight what has inspired, intrigued, infuriated or entertained us.


FILMS THAT WE LIKED ON OUR TALKING PICTURE BOX.


Icarus – enthralling and eye opening but sadly not surprising as doping is becoming more common in grass roots sports.

Yes we love Netflix and its documentary’s.


BOOK WORM CORNER – WHAT WE READING

A great read from a great man; Cameron Mc Neish

STEELY EYED GARMENT NEWS


Starting from scratch we are trying to build a core classic Steely Eyed clothing range but to be honest with you it’s taking a lot longer than we had imagined. Sorry. We have our Classic Project Steel grass is greener & into a dark place T-Shirts and Beanies which are doing well. So we are stoked to announce that we have our “baseball warriors steel project” up and running and these are available in our on-line shop. This will add another dimension to our core classic Project Steely Eyed clothing range and then we can push on and introduce our other exciting clothing ranges that we are working on.


We hope the core Steely Eyed clothing range will be up and running for the summer J and thank you for being chilled about it.
