LION LATCH

From the creator: "I am Lerin, high school art teacher & multi-sport coach. I use my hands A LOT though out the day and I have several occasions where I have to take off my small jewelry, including my wedding rings. When I’m teaching, working out in the weight room, or on the field or on the courts, I have to take my rings off to avoid scratching them or bending them. I was once on the softball field & had to catch in for our outfielder's last minute. After catching a ball from our center fielder, I felt a sting in my ring finger. I removed my hand from my glove & saw the ball had bent my engagement ring, causing it to flatten into my finger & even worse- it knocked out a stone and I couldn’t find it. I made the call to my husband & his response was, “I think I’m going to be sick.” We never wanted to have that feeling again, so I began to look for places to keep my ring when I couldn’t wear it. I tried all sorts of places- my purse, wallet, placing my ring on my necklace, even my keychain carabiner, but all of these solutions still left my rings exposed to objects that could damage them, like keys or change I needed a protective, convenient & consistent place to keep my rings from being damaged or lost, that could still give me peace of mind while I was hard at work or play. Also, I needed something that wouldn't come unscrewed or unzipped like all of the other products made for storage. That’s when I decided to do something myself, so I developed the Lion Latch."
