Grant Mackintosh (1960), CEO of Draggin’ Jeans, advises that for the second time in five years, the company has won the world’s leading industrial design award, the Red Dot. This time it was for its latest protective motorcycle jeans, which passed the highest CE level. It is the only company in the world to have products achieve both CE1 and CE2 levels. The award ceremony will be held in Essen, Germany, in July. Grant said: “Last time we won, I was signing the winners’ board with the person from Apple who designed the iPad, the designer of the Mercedes Benz Gull wing and other celebrated products! I am an old boy from 1960. Yes, very old but having fun!”
