Local Firm Gets Investment On Shark Tank

s

A rather unique company received an investment on ABC's The Shark Tank, one of my favorite TV shows.  Combat flip flops, based in nearby Issaquah, features clothing created in war torn countries like Afghanistan and Laos.  It's motto is "business not bullets".
Former Army Rangers Matthew "Griff" Griffin and Donald Lee came up with the idea after seeing locals with jobs making combat boots in Afghanistan. 
The shark investors were Mark Cuban, Damon John, and Lori Granier, combined they put up 300,000 for a 30 percent investment in the firm.  You can find the Combat Flip Flop Facebook page here
