Desert and Denim
Desert and Denim is part renegade tradeshow, part makers' carnival, part party in the desert debauchery. It was our first year at the event and to say the least we had an amazing time. Campfires, desert sky-full-of-stars, music (Range of Light Wilderness, Shay Roselip, Dirty Fences, POW!, Mondo Drag) and the chance to connect with the makers and owners of the best rugged fashion brands around. The purest thing about Desert & Denim is that it isn’t about selling another slightly different this or that. It’s about a larger idea, its about a community of people making exactly what they want to see made and doing it at the highest quality possible. The folks that are hand selected to exhibit and attend are the kind of people we wouldn't mind being stuck in the beautiful Joshua Tree desert with for eternity, let alone a few beautiful days in February. Thanks to the folks at Juniper Ridge for hosting and the many others we connected with. We won't soon forget this special event - see you all again next year.
