Can Paracord be Fashionable?

can paracord be fashionable?

In a recent post about the Meaning of Paracord Bracelets, we talked about how paracord has usually represented the toughness of the American military—to the point that some people dislike the idea of wearing a paracord bracelet just because they don't want to be thought of as a prepper or gun-toter.

But while paracord was origninally a military field supply, it can be used to make a HUGE variety of wearable products, many of which don't look at all military.

Paracord isn't just just for bracelets anymore. It can be used in clothing repair and gear modification too—all while looking stylish.
