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.

CHAD'S STORE VISIT - POLO RALPH LAUREN, LAS VEGAS,NV

During my recent trip to the States, I visited the Polo Ralph Lauren Store situated in Ceasar's Palace Casino. I had the pleasure to be able to take some pictures of this nicely decorated store. It really breaths the West and the Outdoors, with the Navajo rugs, the beautiful painted canoe's and the stone fire place in the middle. For sure this ain't gambling!

THE PRIDE OF REDWING,MN.

"Welcome to one of the most unique and charming places to visit along the Mississippi River. From our beautiful bluffs, abundance of outdoor activities, historic sites and world famous boots and pottery, Red Wing offers a one-of-a-kind getaway." 

This is how Redwing is promoted by it's visitor centre, and indeed it is that charming town along the mighty ol' river and the bold eagles circling above the beautiful bluffs. But my mission was the Redwing Boot Company. Founded in 1905 by Charles Beckman a local shoe merchant. I visited the museum filled with the rich history of the brand and ofcourse I posed in front of the Icon. In 2005, Red Wing celebrated its centennial anniversary. A size 638 ½ D boot was built in honor of the milestone, standing 16 feet tall and weighing 2,300 pounds, qualifying it for a Guinness World Record.
