The number one historical problem for Combat Flip Flops has been inventory due to available operating capital. Due to the manufacturing locations and focus on direct-to-consumer web sales, financing institutions were unwilling to support our inventory needs. Without that kind of financial backing, Combat Flip Flops used all available cash to fund production and ship to the Combat Flip Flops warehouse. Products quickly sold through, then Combat Flip Flops had to wait another 30-60 days for a delivery. During this period of zero inventory, Combat Flip Flops would heavily discount product with a “pre-sale” model–securing the sale, yet sacrificing profit margin.

In our best years, we’ve only been able to support six (6) months of product availability. The use of proceeds from this investment will be used to cure the problem of product availability, support growth, and increase profit margin.

Main Street Bond Platform Expenses:

As intermediary, Community Bond, LLC shall receive 5% of the amount raised in the Offering, a $5,000.00 onboarding fee, and will be reimbursed for all expenses incurred by the Intermediary on behalf of the Company, including a $5 per Investor processing fee charged the Intermediary’s technology provider, Escrow Fees, and all fees associated with the use of any credit card or alternative considerations processors. The Company is charging each investor an Investment Fee of 2.85% to partially cover Offering Costs associated with each investment. The Investment Fee for credit card transactions is increased to 6.00% to cover the higher cost the Company incurs when such transactions are processed.

The Company is authorized to issue two classes of Interests, Common Units and Series Seed Preferred Units, with each Unit representing an equal share in the Company. Series Seed Preferred Units were created in March of 2016 to facilitate the investment by Shark Tank’s Mark Cuban (as seen on Shark Tank Episode 719). Preferred Units are designed to represent the same interest in the Company as Common Units, but have certain enhanced rights in other areas, including but not limited to on liquidation (Series Seed Preferred Units receive their original investment back first), the right to appoint a director to the Company’s board, and enhanced rights to information from the Company and inspection of Company records. The Company is also required to get majority written consent from the Series Seed Preferred Unit Holders prior to engaging in various major actions, including but not limited to the raising of additional capital, and issuing of additional units (including options), liquidation of the Company, declaring of distributions, changing the officers of the Company or their compensation, engage in certain transactions with Affiliates of the Company.  

The Company’s total authorized units consist of 10,555,565 total Units (just under 20% of which are Series Seed Preferred Units) of which 10,312,500 Units are currently issued and outstanding. As of the date of this offering, our largest members, Matthew Griffin, Andy Sewrey, and Donald Lee collectively own 6,650,145 Common Units or approximately 63.76% of our units currently outstanding. The Common Units being sold in this offering will constitute up to 1.2% of the Company (if the Maximum Offering Amount is sold). Each investor’s stake in a company will be diluted in the future due to the company issuing additional units.

A crowdfunding investment involves risk. You should not invest any funds in this offering unless you can afford to lose your entire investment. In making an investment decision, Investors must rely on their own examination of the issuer and the terms of the offering, including the merits and risks involved. These Securities have not been recommended or approved by any federal or state securities commission or regulatory authority. The Securities should only be purchased by persons who can afford to lose all their investment.

Before making an investment decision with respect to the Securities, we urge you to carefully consider the risk factors described set forth in the Section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form C.

For example, the Company’s business model involves intentionally manufacturing its products in unstable war zones, which creates substantial supply chain challenges which the Company may not be able to overcome. These products are at an unusually high risk of being stolen, set on fire, lost in transit, or held indefinitely. Products which are destroyed or held up cannot be sold, which may negatively impact the profitability of the Company and may also restrict the Company’s ability to purchase new products from its manufacturers, resulting in fewer products for sale, higher manufacturing costs, and longer wait times for consumers, all of which would negatively impact the Company, and which could cause an Investor to lose all or a portion of their investment.

5-STARS EVERY TIME
I love the combat flip flop products and these do not disappoint. I have had my last pair of flip flops for years and they're still going strong. I am hard on my footwear and CBFF are one of the few brands that hold up.

WORK OF ART
This Afghan shemagh is a work of art. It's soft--just like I remember the one I purchased overseas was--and it's beautifully woven. It keeps me warm, but not uncomfortably so. I use mine to keep the wind off my neck while riding my motorcycle, and I often sleep with it loosely around my neck on chilly SoCal nights when I keep the window open. I plan to add a black one, and the green and black when it comes back in stock. You guys have fantastic quality products (I own a pair of Combat Flip Flops.) I highly recommend both products.

BEAUTIFUL CRAFTSMANSHIP
There’s a noticeable difference in quality between this product and the cheap shemaghs sold in the tactical section of any base MCX/NEX/PX. It’s so beautifully made that I’ll hold on to my cheap “made in China” one that I bought as a boot to use in the field and only use this one for travel and vacations to cold places.

AK-47 IT'S, THE KING OF ALL FLOPS! ♥️
AK-47! Combat Flip Flop, I love this Flip Flop, it's so comfortable durable and stylish. Over the years I have proudly owned three pairs of them. I have never found any comparison......ever! With their comfort. Every time I put them on after a long day in steel toed,heavy ass work boots. It's my little piece of heaven, floating on a cloud that is constantly reminding me that retirement is only 20 years away!

OUTSTANDING PRODUCT..... AS USUAL.
This is the NINTH pair of (various styles) flip-flops I've purchased from this company since 2018. All are still operational and standing the test of time. I live on a tropical, mountainous island where I require the comfort and durability that this footwear provides..... Not to mention the best arch support I've ever seen in a flip-flop. My Combat Flip Flops are my go to on a daily basis. Thanks for yet another outstanding pair of flip-flops!

BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK!
This is my second pair of floporators and I’ll be back to buy more. I literally these bad boys every day for over a year until the strap broke between my toes. I totally forgot about the lifetime warranty and unfortunately chucked them in the can. No big deal though, I happily purchased more. Next time I’ll claim the warranty. 100% would recommend if you have a wider forefoot. Perfect fit and high quality!

EXCELLENT FLIP FLOPS
Bought these a couple of years ago and they are holding up excellent. I see very little wear in them which makes me happy for the price I paid. I bought a pair for my wife some years ago and cringed at paying so much. Worth it!
