Outdoor Retailer Summer Market

my dad set up a fishing pole for me and 00:07 I felt something on the end of my line I 00:10 pulled up and it was a little red and 00:14 yellow a cement truck when you are 00:17 living on a 27 foot sailboat you don't 00:20 have a lot of toys so I put this 00:22 thrilled to have something to play with 00:25 and I really believed that I had caught 00:28 this out of the ocean Outdoor Retailer 00:36 is an industry trade show for the 00:39 outdoor industry this is where brands 00:41 come together to connect with retailers 00:43 with the media and to preview lines for 00:45 the upcoming seasons 00:49 I'm definitely inspired by the outdoors 00:51 and I'm very much a product of the West 00:53 and I feel a lot of my imagery and art 00:55 is inspired by the West it's just really 00:57 fun to see my art traveling around 00:59 connecting people going on adventures 01:01 taking me the outdoors and blending with 01:04 modern technology it's meant to be used 01:07 in an environment itself so just trying 01:09 to take the modern conveniences and 01:11 blend it with the outdoors base of what 01:13 we're trying to do as we build an 01:14 outdoor gear to help people get outside 01:15 and be active with their dives so 01:17 whether you're activity of choice is 01:18 paddle boarding or running or biking or 01:20 just head of the dog park we make gear 01:22 to get outside and W be active with your 01:23 dog we built the business to associate 01:25 every single business transaction with 01:28 the environmental action of us picking 01:29 up a pound of trash from waterways glad 01:34 to give us the most important thing the 01:37 air is free of charge the water is real 01:40 charge but today because the color we 01:44 pollute a lot of water you get the nice 01:47 color and you pollute so many waters 01:50 that's why we say color is really 01:52 thirsty 01:53 we don't want to follow the water so all 01:55 our products we don't use one drop of 01:57 the water 01:59 I've actually been in the pet industry 02:01 almost 20 years got my big mascot with 02:05 me oshi it's been a lifetime of love for 02:08 animals I wanted to go to vet school 02:09 working in the vet clinic I couldn't 02:11 always bear to put animals down so I 02:14 kind of became the refuge yeah for a 02:16 whole lot of animals and I was hiding 02:18 animals in my garage until I could 02:21 rehome them so I totally know why I'm 02:22 divorced Yeah right now I've got a 02:26 Clydesdale horse two dogs and a cat and 02:29 the Clydesdale and the dog are best 02:33 friends they actually kind of play 02:34 together and play chase 02:39 the product is tailgater tire table and 02:41 it's a table that goes on to your it 02:43 uses your tire it's the main support I 02:45 was at a ski area and I happen to look 02:48 at a bumper step just something that 02:51 comes out of a hitch and it just all 02:53 clicked for some reason and I went home 02:55 and built one that night camping world's 02:57 got it 02:59 sportsmen has it looks like REI is gonna 03:01 go with it and we sell through Amazon 03:03 the founders son was out on vacation 03:05 with his dad and they tried this older 03:07 scooter technology and he turned to his 03:09 dad and he said can't you make something 03:11 so much better and there we go we have 03:12 the white shark makes more high-end 03:14 men's grooming line you know Duke cannon 03:16 is sort of the epitome of what a man 03:18 should be is based on this idea that men 03:20 don't want loofahs and body washes and 03:22 scented oils right we want a big-ass 03:23 brick' soap we manufacture the best 03:25 women the stanza PA accessory it's 03:27 called the Tinker Bell and as you can 03:29 see any woman Constantia people in 03:32 clothes 03:32 my wife and I we adopted Momo in 2010 03:36 and to be honest I was just astonished 03:39 by how much you care for them and how 03:42 much money you're willing to spend make 03:43 sure they're happy they're comfortable 03:44 oh mama no coming we just thought that 03:46 we could put our own spin on pet beds 03:50 cat toys we have some very cool design 03:53 that people talk about color blocking 03:54 mixing and matching who colors so that's 03:56 something that we are working on 03:58 cartography is the science of making 04:01 Maps basically and it's an art as well 04:03 we're really just wrapping up the first 04:06 decade of the huge increase in digital 04:09 map use which is really advantageous in 04:11 urban areas if you're looking for a 04:13 restaurant or a museum and you need 04:15 directions you want to see how traffic 04:16 is in a certain part of town but where 04:19 people are still using paper maps than 04:21 most is in wilt wilderness areas on the 04:24 back roads where the Google car hasn't 04:26 gone and recorded everything that there 04:28 is to see but where field checkers have 04:31 actually been going out there for 10 20 04:32 years in our case making sure that the 04:35 map is more accurate than anything 04:36 you'll find on your phone we work with 04:38 the BLM in Nevada they use our atlases 04:42 in certain areas to literally reference 04:44 what page they're on what grid reference 04:46 they're on the certain peak and trail 04:48 that they're trying to get to in order 04:50 to mitigate a wildfire state tourism 04:52 boards used to come in and make a 04:53 statewide map and start giving those 04:55 away and that's really what map 04:57 collectors are doing is collecting 04:59 historical maps that are no longer in 05:01 print it probably will never be in print 05:04 again it's almost like vinyl you know 05:06 they have a real sense of nostalgia 05:12 fishing is like magic it always takes 05:15 you to beautiful places I don't have to 05:18 worry about my phone going off 05:19 there's no reminders or notifications 05:21 coming up and it's just a wonderful 05:23 thing I love the idea that you can you 05:25 know get lost very easily like you can 05:28 get out and feel lost and you feel like 05:31 you're in a wild place it doesn't take a 05:33 lot to you know get off the beaten path 05:34 a lot of people just see the parks 05:36 through you know their car window but if 05:38 you get out and it's so easy to feel 05:40 like in the wild 05:48 you
