West Seattle Goblin started as a passion project in early 2024 when Greg discovered the healing properties of repetitive manual labor—the motion of weaving together Paracord was both relaxing and offered an avenue for his hyper-focus.

Always the tinkerer, he quickly discovered that he had a talent for creating new designs and adding stitching and trinkets to each piece to make it completely unique. Now Greg sells his wares online and at in-person events like flea markets to the public, making a wide variety of designs like bracelets, collars, headbands, and more.

While it's undeniably lovely to look at, Paracord is also widely known as a survival tool by outdoors enthusiasts because of its wide variety of uses. From building shelter to tending injuries, creating fishing line to setting traps, the strong and flexible material is useful in a pinch if you find yourself in need. Any of Greg's creations can be cut down and made into something much more than a fashion statement, making his skill your sartorial and utilitarian gain!
