In this blog, we're excited to introduce you to the world of SkyboundGear, where quality meets the love of aviation.
The SkyboundGear Story – From Survival to the Skies
Founded in 2015, SkyboundGear began its journey by catering to adventurers and off-grid travelers, offering a range of survival gear and off-grid technology. Our products, designed for resilience and reliability, reflected our deep understanding of the needs of those who venture into the unknown. However, the winds of change brought by the COVID pandemic steered us towards a new horizon – the world of aviation.
Recognizing the shift in global travel trends and the unique needs of those who operate and love aircraft, SkyboundGear took a bold step. We transitioned from survival gear to creating high-quality, bespoke products for aviators and their families. This pivot was more than a business decision; it was a tribute to the indomitable spirit of flight that connects all of us at SkyboundGear.
Unique Products for Unique Aviators – Our Exclusive Collection
At the heart of SkyboundGear's offerings are our exclusive, in-house designed t-shirts. Created by talented artists, each design is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, embodying the essence of aviation. But our creativity doesn’t stop there. We take personalization to new heights with our custom n-number shirts – a perfect blend of style and individuality, allowing pilots to wear their passion on their sleeves, quite literally!
Our range extends beyond apparel, featuring unique items like Sherpa blankets printed with crystal-clear FAA VFR Sectional images – a favorite among both aviators and enthusiasts. Our product line also includes meticulously designed mouse pads, stunning artwork, and destination wear that captures the spirit of famous locales like Mardi Gras in New Orleans or the serene Michigan Lakeshore. For those seeking to bring the aviation spirit into their homes or cockpits, SkyboundGear offers an unmatched selection.
For Aviators and Their Families – A Spectrum of Choices
SkyboundGear understands that aviation is not just a profession or a hobby; it's a lifestyle that often involves the entire family. Our product range caters to aviators and their loved ones. We celebrate the bond within aviation families with items like the adorable “Daddy's Co-pilot” shirts for children, fostering a love for flying from a young age.
We also recognize the significant role of women in aviation and offer products exclusively designed for female aviators and their unique preferences. This focus not only empowers women in the aviation community but also encourages them to share their passion with their families.
Gear for Flight Simulator Enthusiasts – Bringing the Sky Closer
For those who dream of flying or love the thrill of aviation from the ground, SkyboundGear has a special place. Our range includes bespoke products for flight simulator enthusiasts, a group often aspiring to be pilots or simply passionate about aviation. Our custom mouse pads, cockpit decor, and simulator-friendly gear bring an authentic touch to any flight simulation setup, enhancing the virtual flying experience.
These products are more than accessories; they're a bridge for simulator enthusiasts to the world of aviation, reflecting their aspirations and passion.
