Tony Higson

Shared by emma_kate Make Your Mark team
Tony Higson designed the Highson after becoming increasingly annoyed at how creased his clothes were getting while cycling to work.

The Highson is an innovative cycling jacket with a removable suit carrier attached by zip at the back and it’s aimed at the ever increasing number of commuters who choose to cycle to work.

With over 11 years in retail sales and management, Tony has invested around £20,000 into designing the initial prototype, research, marketing, patenting and website design and is currently looking to China to manufacture the product.
