//Your CHARLESONS
P.S.: How did you get to the brand name? "Charles":
The major part of the brand name "Charles" was inspired by the character Charles played by Anthony Hopkins in the movie called "On the Edge". In the movie Charles and some fellow characters are crashing with a plane in the middle of Canada's raw nature, and a fight for survival starts from here on. Charles is a character with a great deal of knowledge about nature, has a big heart and would never give up fighting for survival. Thus he is doing everything to make sure himself and everyone else survives. If he succeeds? You have to find it out by yourself by watching the movie ;)
"-ons":
Ever since the founder was fishing for the first time with his father in a Swedish lake somewhere in the nowhere as a kid, he fell in love with Scandinavia and it's diverse characteristics. The in Sweden very common "ons" ending is thus used to express this young love with Sweden. "The":
The "the" was chosen to incorporate a band character which should represent one of the four elements that are suppose to fuse together in the brand, namely music...
..and voilà the brand THE CHARLESONS was born, as easy as that ;)
