Copy/paste from their website, advert/promotion/conflict of interest. Fails WP:CORP, as I could only find this news article with merely a brief mention of the company. ~EdGl !  23:00, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - The copy/paste was a copyright violation that should have been removed immediately. I'm not sure if you checked google news beyond the last month, but there are more hits in the archive. I'm not really sure what Wearables Business is or whether it counts as a reliable source.-- Beloved Freak  09:49, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. All the "sources" appear to be based on press releases.  The company's sole claim to notability seems to be that its catalog won an "American Graphic Design Award," but I can't find anything indicating that's a noteworthy achievement, and that award doesn't seem to have gotten attention from independent sources.  Just another company trying to use Wikipedia for promotion.... they're a bigger problem for the project than vandals, in my opinion. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:21, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
