Gilbert-based clothing and accessory company Tough Apparel will be featured on the highly popular TV show "Shark Tank" this week.

The new episode will air at 7 p.m. May 8 on ABC15.

Tough Apparel was started by Skylar Bennett and Kevin Shoemaker in 2016. The company’s main product is the “Tough Tie,” which is machine washable.

Bennett and Shoemaker were both new dads and were sick of having work clothes ruined, so they decided to create more durable dress clothes, according to an announcement.
