Bill's Khakis
As fascinated as we are with the future, our hearts lie in the past. Old movies, books and vintage photographs are places we go to connect.
I found a connection in a pair of original World War II khakis I found at an Army surplus store while I was in college. They were remarkably comfortable, deep pocketed, and put together to withstand just about anything. Today’s khakis paled in comparison. “We could put a man on the moon, but couldn’t make khakis like we did 50 years ago,” I thought. Someone had to save this small but symbolic piece of Americana.
The idea of starting a company that captured and celebrated the American ideal took on such great philosophical importance to me that I quit my advertising job in Chicago and moved home to Reading, Pennsylvania to start Bills Khakis. The year was 1990.
