Max and Jon with their MaXX Bears


What a great start to the new year for Jon (right) seen here with his Shifu Max, showing off the bears that they had just finished making. Compared to the Sunshine Bear that we learnt to make not too long ago, this was far more difficult, requiring long needles, plyers and even surgical instruments!!!

We consider ourselves truly blessed that Max, the creator of our MaXX Bears and Bunnies made from recycled jeans, offered to take Jon in as his pupil and shared with Jon his closely guarded bear making techniques and skills.

It was an ultimate act of trust in us because if these bear-making secrets become known to others, it could affect Max's livelihood. We are therefore duty bound to safeguard these secrets to protect Max's interest.

Here's a close-up look of the MaXX bears that Jon and his Shifu Max made:
