Team Townsend, once again, was proud to participate in the huge Albany area CDPHP Workforce Challenge 5K! Our biggest group yet had a super rockin’ good time! Spending time bonding and chatting on the bus ride down, walking, running, rocking along the 5K course, and enjoying the crazy sites of the thousands of people gathered in the Empire State Plaza.
It was another moment for Townsend Partners to showcase their collective awesomeness and have fun as a team.
Townsend was even honored (and surprised) to be awarded with FIRST PLACE! IN THE T-SHIRT DESIGN COMPETITION! For the MOST CREATIVE T-SHIRT! See below for the t-shirt contest submission images and the shirt explanation.
Townsend Leather submits this T-Shirt design for consideration in the CDPHP Workforce Challenge 2016 T-Shirt Competition.
We are super proud of our rockin’ team at Townsend Leather, so we wanted to create a shirt that reflects a little bit of the awesome, powerful, gritty, rock that we produce and embody everyday.
This is meant to be an “interactive” shirt giving the wearer an opportunity to really shred some sweet air guitar riffs! As well as a microphone strategically placed to let the wearer scream into their chest as they run. We will be holding guitar neck toys (shown in the pic), cowbells, and custom Townsend Leather guitar picks as well, to really complete the look!
This shirt also builds on our Superhero theme from last year (shown peaking through under the guitar) because legacy, history, and of course super powers are also important to our rocking team.
The shirt is a bright “safety orange” color. The front shows a custom drawn Townsend sticker covered guitar and microphone layered on top of our Townsend “Super T’s” from last year. The back of the shirt says Townsend Leather Rocks, or it can be read as Townsend Rocks Leather – both are true!
Just settling in from the excitement of the HD Expo in Las Vegas, Team Townsend is packing up to head to EBACE in Switzerland.
This show is always bursting with activity for us and leaves us excited and inspired. We have so many brand new leathers to show off, ones that have been specifically designed for the aircraft industry.
One of these aircrafty, designy, everyone-pleasing, brand new leathers is our Pinnacle Cowhide.
We are proud to have this new collection featured in Altitudes Magazine.
You can see our Pinnacle Cowhide on page 102 of the magazine.
You can also see a eye catching, beautiful, custom made Townsend leather shown in a Flying Colours helicopter on page 63.
Townsend Leather is once again at the active, inspiring, and fun HD Expo in Las Vegas.

March is always a crazy month at Townsend, with the rush of energy for Spring nearby and finally getting settled in to the new year.
This year we got a little extra crazy and if you were a lucky recipient of our annual Townsend Leather Calendar, www.townsendleather.com/2015/lifestyle/townsend-leather-rocks, and have flipped over to March – you probably noticed just how crazy we got!
A quadfectra of crazy!
Have you ever had the feeling you wanted to just skip over a day?
Have you ever wanted to live the same day twice?
Well, with Townsend’s calendar, this March – you can!
You will notice there is no March 8th. It’s a free day! Skip it, leave it, don’t worry about it! A day you don’t have to remember, a day you won’t even notice!
But then you can follow that up with double the fun on March 13th! Do something awesome that day, because you get to do it twice ;)
That would be plenty of fun for one month, but it doesn’t stop there!
“Hey March 21st, we don’t need you this year – we are much too excited for the 22nd, so we’re going to jump right there!” And we love the 22nd so much, we’re gonna do it again, double 22!
We look forward to creating a mistake-free calendar next year, but for now, we look at the month of March as a time to get excited, to be present, and to treat each day as a special gift – no matter what the date really is!
Join us in making ‘mindful holidays‘ out of these date screw-ups. We aim to do this each and every day, but especially this year on March 13th, 13th, 22nd, and 22nd – we are going to take extra time to focus on the things that matter most.
It is so easy to get caught up in the day to day, to let the days fly by almost unnoticed. How many times have you looked at your calendar only to be surprised that is already Thursday or that it’s only Tuesday! This March, don’t let that happen, let your faulty calendar help you to rely on your own sense of time and importance.
Take a moment these days to breath and slow down. Do something you love. Spend extra time working on your personal design project. Take a friend to lunch. Take yourself to lunch! Do a crazy memorable thing. Take these days as an excuse, as a prompt, as a reason to do something off track, out of routine, out of the norm. You won’t regret it.
Please share with us, on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram what crazy things you did to celebrate your second March 13th or second March 22!
If you need some great music to accompany you on these mindful days of exploration, wonder, and memory-making-adventures – check out our Spotify playlist. It includes each of the songs listed in our calendar, along with many more gritty tunes.
Color Inspiration Spotlight on…
ORCHID
Hues of Orchid are royal, stunning, eye-grabbing.
They demand attention, but without the ferocity of color-cousin Magenta.
Paired with similar tones, from as far as deep reds to near-brown violets,
Orchid hues can equally be the standout or the bridge to the rest of your design palette.
Shown this month in two prominent ways.
One, as a featured leather in our brand new Stacy Garcia® Collection.
Our Stacy Garcia® Trifecta Cowhide,
order samples and see more here:
www.TownsendLeather.com/StacyGracia
And in hand-crafted Leather Roses.

A limited amount exists, so if you want to have some to gift away to an orchid hue loving special person in your life before Valentine’s day, place your purchase request now. The roses you purchase will be in a variety of colors and shades and will feature the uniqueness of any hand-crafted good.
