It’s the spirit of the words that hit you hard and make you feel. A great man that was here for too short a time. We celebrate the greatness of life today as we celebrate and remember the life of MLK.

Just Got back from a series of trips to Tahoe and to the Pacific Northwest.
It was pretty fun to meet folks, visit shops, get some new accounts and get some shred on. I need to thank Marcy, Doug, and the KOP in Spokane and Logan Neitzel in Seatown…for letting me hang for a couple of days and for hooking me up with the goods. Also Peter Benedicto in Seatown for just being one of the coolest guys around…I’m looking forward to what his future holds….Also the shops that let me come and visit…WINTERSPORT, EVO, SHORELINE, THE VILLAGE, RIP N WILLIES, GRANITE CHIEF, SNOCON, DAVE’S, BOARDERLINE, NWSNOWBOARDS, GROUND ZERO, LOCAL 77, ALPINE SKI, THE SKI SHACK, and everybody else that I can’t remember right now….Long live the independently owned snow shop!

I’m out in California right now. Talking with shops, getting kids stoked on the new product and brand. I had a good talk with George and Co. at the Milosport in Lafeyette. George is a great guy from the OG Milo’s in SLC, Ut. He actually grew up out here and wanted to go back to his roots. So he he brought his knowledge and the Milo name to kids in the East Bay area. George and his crew keep it real. Anyway I will be heading up to Tahoe this coming week to talk to shops…I got to get riding

So I am starting this out and hoping that it gets used well.
Giv Clothing really started out of a garage…and a living room…well actually it kind of took over the house I was living in. Kinda crazy when an idea you have actually is given life and the means to exist.

I’m excited where it will end up.
