Running Eighteen Forty Two has been one of the greatest privileges of my life, and this season I am feeling especially thankful. What started as a small idea rooted in collegiate pride has now evolved into a full sports inspired accessories brand that reaches fans in Austin and across the country. Seeing our scarves, bolo ties, and sports themed designs on all of you fills me with so much gratitude.
A Brand That Grew Through Community Support
When I launched Eighteen Forty Two, my goal was simple. I wanted to create elevated pieces that felt personal, meaningful, and worthy of being passed down. Over time, your support pushed this brand into something bigger. Today, 1842 creates luxury sports accessories worn by football fans, racing fans, baseball fans, and supporters of teams far beyond Texas.
Every order, every boutique partnership, and every message from a customer has helped shape the direction of this brand. I am grateful for every person who chooses to shop small and support a vision that blends sports spirit with timeless style.
From Collegiate Roots to a Full Sports Collection
It has been inspiring to watch Eighteen Forty Two grow into a broader sports category. Our Longhorn inspired pieces remain at the heart of our story, but now our collections celebrate teams and sports across the country. From racing inspired scarves to custom bolo ties and unique accessories for game day, the goal is always the same. Create elevated sports fashion that feels special, stylish, and high quality.
The shift into sports inspired designs has allowed 1842 to reach new audiences while staying true to our signature luxury feel. I am thankful for the customers who embraced that evolution and continue to wear our pieces with pride.
Thank You to Every Customer and Boutique Partner
This brand is only possible because of you. To the boutiques that carry our products and champion this small Austin based business, thank you. Your belief in Eighteen Forty Two means more than you know.
To every customer who has purchased a scarf, styled a bolo tie, shared a photo, or gifted an 1842 piece to someone they love, thank you. Your support helps this brand grow in ways I never imagined.
Looking Ahead With Gratitude
Eighteen Forty Two will continue expanding into new sports categories, new designs, and new stories that celebrate the pride people feel for their teams. I cannot wait to share everything that is coming next.
Thank you for supporting a small brand that values quality, meaning, and elevated sports inspired style. I am grateful for every one of you.
