MONT5 Offering Made-to-Measure Leather Jackets Without Luxury Markup. Got Fully Funded On KickStarter within 48 Hours of Launch

    LITTLE ROCK, AR, November 10, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- MONT5 is a online only label focused on creating luxury leather jackets for men with an affordable price tag. MONT5 released their label through a crowd sourcing campaign on the crowdsourcing platform kickstarter and was an instant hit, meeting their goal of $18,000 in 48 hours.

The brand intends to keep on selling online by creating an online E commerce channel and does not intend to have a brick and mortar shop. The co-founder of the startup Zia says, "Our aim is to provide value, a personal experience with a low cost. We do this by cutting all the middlemen out and selling directly to our customers. If we went with a traditional brick & mortar shop we would not have been able to do it. Because of additional costs."

We live in a time where startups like MONT5 can exist and flourish because of online channels, we have seen E commerce go up over the years and it is growing at 13.5% every year, through this growth we have seen the rise of multi Billion dollar E commerce stores like Amazon, Alibaba and Flipkart. MONT5 wants to use the same model and deliver right to it's customers, this helps them to reduce cost and provide more value to it's customers at the same time, it allows them to give a fair share to the craftsman working with them.

"We believe in ethical trade practices and are setting up measures to make sure our craftsmen grow with us as our startup grows. The generations old craft is dying and people associated with it aren't making enough money to keep it going for example our head tailor Naeem Ahmed with 30 years of experience was driving a taxi when we found him, we want to change that." Commented co-founder Zia.

The kick starter will allow the startup to raise money to buy the best quality leather from the tanneries that serve Wilson leather and other big labels in U.S , the startup aim's to create jackets that last a life time and they back this up with a life time warranty.

But the biggest advantage the company has over retail stores is it's personalized experience, where the user is connected with a consultant who helps him with the measurement and style of jacket to ensure every customer get's a perfect fit and looks great while wearing it. The custom experience sets the company apart from other online and retail stores. The stores that do provide the service cost 3X or what MONT5 offers.

When reached out for a comment the craftsmen said, "We are happy because we have a fair share in the jackets sold, something we haven't had in all of our professional life. Thank you for supporting our craft and handwork."

The company also offers fully custom jacket services, where individuals can work with the designer to create a custom piece.

Mont5 Kickstarter still has 17 days to go and they are aiming to reach the $100,000 mark by the end of it.

MONT5 is an ethical label in partnership with craftsmen, aimed at creating well-designed products that are individually crafted and have a life time warranty. MONT5 is focussed on giving a personal experience at a reasonable price to it's customers.
