Specs and Specialization — with David Barton of David Kind




Loose Threads — Consumer, retail, fashion and commerce show

Summary: On the 45th episode of the Loose Threads Podcast, a show about the intersection of consumer, retail and commerce, I talk with David Barton, the founder of David Kind, an eyewear brand focused on high quality specs at an honest price. David founded the brand after seeing a hole in the market for high end but still affordable direct to consumer eyewear. David Kind prides itself on its online and offline experience and its high quality products. We had a great talk about David’s career in eyewear, the brand’s founding and how it's tackling fit and style issues as an online-only brand. — Show Notes — David Kind http://davidkind.com Edited by George Drake Jr. — About Loose Threads — http://LooseThreads.com Join the newsletter: http://eepurl.com/buLQY9 Twitter: http://twitter.com/loosethreadscom The Loose Threads Podcast explores the intersection of consumer, retail and commerce.
