New York, September 10th - Rothco, a division of Morris Rothenberg & Son, Inc. is excited to announce the winner of their first annual Draw Your Weapons T-shirt Design Contest. With hundreds of military and tactical designs submitted to the contest, it came down to a tight race between 5 finalists from all over the world. Luke Trahan, from Sulfur, Louisiana walked away the winner with his ‘Bad to the Boonie’ design, which featured a skull wearing a popular boonie hat, to check out Luke’s winning design visit Rothco’s Facebook page at facebook.com/Rothco1953.
“I came up with the design idea, because my friends and I play airsoft for fun, and some of us wear camo boonie caps when we play. I have never seen any skull art with a boonie cap, so I thought it would be a neat idea. ‘Bad to the Boonie’ is also a creative phrase I have never heard.” Said Luke Trahan Sulfur, the winner of Rothco’s Draw Your Weapons contest.
Luke won the biggest prize package Rothco has given away to date. The prize package includes:
- $500 Worth of Rothco Gear
- A Trip For 2 to NY & then Attend Rothco’s 60th Anniversary Party
- Have His Design Printed on One of Rothco’s T-shirts
