CrossBreed Announces Founder's Series



SPRINGFIELD, MO - CrossBreed® Holsters, a leading manufacturer in the category of concealed carry, introduces their new Founder's Series holsters and belts. CrossBreed® developed the Founder's Series to commemorate legacy Founder, Mark Craighead. From the custom logo to the old-world, soft supple leather, the Founder's Series is meant to provide a unique, distinctive look with all the same comfort and quality you come to expect from CrossBreed® Holsters.

The Founder's Series honors the inception of the company and vision that Mark started in 2005. Mark was an avid shooter, re-loader and concealed carry permit holder who was introduced to firearms at a young age by his father. With a strong interest in firearms — particularly handguns — Mark grew his knowledge of the firearms industry. And with his experience, Mark became familiar with holsters, learning what worked and what did not. After collecting his proverbial "box of holsters," Mark decided to create a design of his own, incorporating the best features of other holsters and discarding the non-functional elements. In doing so, Mark had handcrafted a new breed of holsters. Within a couple of years, Mark's hybrid holster design had achieved such popularity that his company, CrossBreed Holsters, gained national recognition as a leading manufacturer of some of the best and most functional concealment holsters available on the market today. Each holster is handmade by craftsmen personally trained by Mark. These craftsmen continue to pass on the skills, traditions, and attention to detail to the new generation of craftsmen who have joined the company under Mark's original vision.
Because of Mark's great passion for the firearm industry, business and customers, we honor Mark with every holster crafted. CrossBreed® is committed to promoting that same passion throughout the company as they carry on Mark's vision providing the highest-quality concealed holster on the market.
Mark passed on August 24, 2012. At a young age of 43, Mark touched many lives with the success of his business and in his own way, he Carried the Cross for many of his friends and family. In an interview before his passing, Mark was asked what he would most like to be remembered for and in his way of always thinking of others first he stated: "Touching other people's lives in a positive way and making a difference, because that, no matter where you are at in life, is more important than business success, finances, any of it! I don't care what your financial level is. When you learn to bless other people, you truly get blessed yourself."
Whether you carry a semi-auto or revolver inside the waist, prefer outside carry, off person or in a vehicle, CrossBreed® Founder's Series is the perfect solution for your protection needs.
