Store Opened in Partnership with Vital Outdoors; Doors will Open February 15, 2017
Santa Barbara, Calif. (February 10, 2017) – Toad&Co, the outdoor lifestyle apparel company, is thrilled to announce the opening of its new 1,500-square-foot retail location at 1213 Washington Ave in Golden, Colorado. The shop will be located on the same street as its partner, Vital Outdoors, a local gear outfitter who will handle the shop’s day-to-day operations.
“We are excited to be opening our newest retail location in the town of Golden,” notes Scott Whipps, Toad&Co’s vice president of sales. “Many Colorado-natives will remember the brand, formally Horny Toad, from its Telluride roots. Plus, Golden is bustling with outdoor enthusiasts who care about sustainability and the environment. It’s a perfect fit for the brand.”
The new retail space will mirror Toad&Co’s existing stores in Freeport, Maine and Portland, Oregon, offering a full selection of the brand’s sustainable apparel for men and women. The shop will also carry other accessories, footwear and more from complimenting brands.
“The Toad&Co Golden store is an opportunity to bring a new social and cultural hub to Golden,” notes David Livingston, owner and operator of the Toad&Co Golden store. “The shop perfectly marries the Trail to Tavern® ethos of the brand.”
In the spirit of serving as a community hub, the store will support local nonprofits based out of the American Mountaineering Museum, Big City Mountaineers, Colorado 14er and Continental Trail Alliance, to name a few. The store staff will also participate in local trail cleanup efforts, host local artists and musicians, and will have Pangea Coffee on tap during the day for customers.
