I'm solidifying plans for 2024 and came across a picture from 2022 that I had drawn of a potential design for some running shorts. I love long basketball shorts but when I'm out on the trails they don't meet my needs, so I thought about creating something that would work for me. A couple of design highlights are the use of an equestrian design, neoprene on inner thighs for increased durability, some mesh around the waist, a kangaroo-style section on the waist to hold a soft or hard water bottle and an overall design that feels good on bigger bodies, tell me what you think?

is about disrupting the narrative about what it means to be . I want all people from inner cities, shanty towns or suburban areas, to know that stepping outside is more than enough. Finding your peace of joy in the outdoors can heal the mind, body and the soul.

70% of US adults are overweight or obese which means we're in bigger bodies. I'm no genius just a college degree in mathematics. The last time I checked my textbook 70% was the majority and the standard. Why are stores still neglecting to offer 70% of their items in larger sizes?

I have a strong desire to make outdoor gear accessible, so I'm thinking about a mobile outdoor gear repair center. People can donate used gear or get gear repaired and we'll donate gear to those who need it.

People ask about supporting the brand, there are two ways: 1) tell everyone you know that there is an outdoor brand making gear for bigger bodies and 2) buy other merchandise like our tees which are designed for every BODY! #
