Jed Frost also founded a leather goods business called "Frost," the newspaper reported. The high-end company sold premium leather bags for as low as $5,000 and as much as $75,000, according to the report.
The company’s website includes a page titled, "The Beginning," in which Jed wrote: "The inspiration for Frost bags came from a bag given to me by my wife, Beth, as a gift upon her graduation from medical school. The bag design was her concept, then built from a piece of raw cowhide. Ironically, the number 25, my college basketball jersey number, had been branded into the hide she selected."
