Bugle Boy Industries, Inc. was a clothing company founded by Vincent Nesi and William Mow in 1977.
William C. W. Mow (Traditional Chinese: 毛昭寰) was born in Hangzhou, China, and later moved with his family to the United States.
Mow founded Macrodata based on his invention of a method of testing large-scale integrated chips and the company went public in 1973.
Although he was later cleared, he had to stay out of the electronics design industry for a few years due to a non-competition clause he had signed with Macrodata.
Elastic cuffs at the bottom of the jeans and cross-stitching patterns were also a major part of the Bugle Boy style, with brands such as Pilot and Cotler being its contemporaries.
