Brand Values

• •Community Support: Actively supporting veterans, service members, and their families through profit donations.
• •Quality & Comfort: Providing well-made, soft, and comfortable apparel.
• •Sustainability: Commitment to eco-friendly printing processes and materials.
• •Heritage & History: Valuing and preserving historical elements in their designs.
• •Customer Focus: Encouraging feedback and aiming to improve the customer experience.
• •Authenticity: Offering designs that are subtle and true to a discerning taste.
• •Unity: Using fashion to bring people together across different lifestyles (rural and urban).

Best Practices

• •Embody Your Core Values: Ensure your copy consistently reflects the brand's foundational principles like community support, sustainability, quality, and heritage. For example, always mention the donation to veterans when relevant, or highlight eco-friendly aspects in product descriptions.
• •Speak the Language of Your Audience: Use an authentic, down-to-earth, and appreciative tone that resonates with individuals who value rural traditions, quality craftsmanship, and understated style. Avoid overly trendy slang if it doesn't fit the "grown-up" yet approachable feel.
• •Highlight Quality and Craftsmanship Subtly: Focus on the benefits of the materials (softness, durability) and the thought behind the "subtle" and "vintage" designs without being boastful. Let the quality feel inherent rather than overtly sold.
• •Maintain a Consistent Voice Across All Channels: Whether it's website copy, email newsletters, (future) social media posts, or customer service interactions, the tone should remain consistent. Develop a simple brand voice guide if multiple people are creating content.
• •Tell Stories, Don't Just Sell Products: Incorporate narratives around the inspiration behind designs, the impact of the community support, or the connection to rural heritage. This builds an emotional connection and reinforces the brand's authentic, nostalgic, and unifying values.

Social Perception
