Bootstrapping An American-Made Jean Company with Patrick Mate, Founder & CEO of Patriot Jean Co.

In this episode of the Transition, I sit down with Patrick Mate, Army Veteran and Founder of Patriot Jean Company, An Arizona-based American-made apparel company that produces 100% grown, sewn, and built Jeans. Manufacturing is a hard business, but that’s not stopping him. Although he’s still in the startup phase, Patricks invested over six-figures to bring his American-made brand to life, which officially launches in a few weeks with their two products, the Defender and the Innovator. I invited Patrick on the show to share his story and why he thinks American-made jeans represent a golden opportunity.
