We’re excited to feature a new artist series Bamboo iPhone 5/5S case along with matching Grove Notebook leather cover for Moleskine. Only the Strong is a design from US-based artist and graphic designer Steve Goodin, also known as DEMEN1. Goodin works professionally as a motion graphics designer and also has his hands in 3D modeling and animation.

His typography design Only The Strong was inspired by his brother-in-law’s unlikely survival of a vicious house fire and his long but steady road to recovery after the incident. Goodin felt as though "Only The Strong" would make it through something like that, and it emboldened his whole family. The artist’s proceeds from this design will be donated to his brother-in-law’s recovery fund. Read more about that here.

Goodin says, “theres a pretty powerful quote that my wife would carry with her throughout her brothers recovery which also inspired this custom typography piece: ‘You never know how strong you are until being strong is the ONLY option you have.’"

The Only the Strong Bamboo iPhone 5/5S Case is now available at the special limited time price of $79, and the Only the Strong Grove Notebook leather Moleskine cover is available starting at $59 for pocket-sized notebooks.

Go forth and be strong!
