CHAD'S STORE VISIT: MANREADY MERCANTILE, HOUSTON TX.

Last spring on my trip to Texas and the South of the USA, I stopped by a local hero called Manready Mercantile.

Located in the heart of the Historic Heights in Houston, Texas. They become the ultimate general goods store with unique offerings and Texas hospitality unlike no other you'll find in the world.

Created in 2012 by Travis S. Weaver, a small town guy originally from Zephyr, Texas. The store quickly become a premier general goods store and manufacturer in Houston built upon values of honesty and hard work. When you combine these two traits, you can't help but get quality service and products. 

Work hard, Live well!

CHAD'S STORE VISIT - TOPO DESIGN, DENVER,CO

Recently I visited the Topo Design store Denver, Co. Located in a "sea-container" on Larimer Street.

The store was packed with bags in different sizes and colors, it's impossible to walk away without a Topo Design bag. But they also run stuff made by local artist, like the posters with 4x4 vehicles and much much more.

Founders Mark Hansen and Jedd Rose began the company back in 2010. Taking its name from Topographic maps, Topo Designs hail from Boulder, Colorado, and manufacture some of the best gear in the industry.
