As a mechanical engineering student, USMC veteran, and outdoor enthusiast, I have always had disperate experiences and interests. Rarely do all three of these pillars of my personality find a project to cross paths. Gila Conceal started as just that, a way for me to practice my engineering discipline, an excuse to get outside and find rugged places, and a prospect of potentially giving back to military community. With the support of my partner, Casey, and encouragement from my fellow veterans, Gila Conceal was born. Integrating computational software, artistic creativity, and an influence from native reptilian species, there is no other company out there that does it quite like we do. Our fantastic customer following has given me the confidence and drive to continue to develop the company, get more great people involved and perfect our patterns and products.
