Heritage Capital Group is pleased to announce the successful closing of a capital raise for Tough Gear Inc. dba Survival Straps. Survival Straps is a manufacturer of stylish products made from woven military spec parachute cord which gives them a secondary purpose.

Products include bracelets, belts, watch straps, lanyards, rifle slings and dog collars that come in over 50,000 color combinations. In addition, many pieces include a dog tag incorporated into the design which can be customized with a photo, medical alert, or officially licensed logos including the Wounded Warrior Project, PGA Tour, Harley Davidson, collegiate teams, and more.
