I'll start by saying that I am a Vermonter. I was born and raised in a small town in Southern VT and I grew up skiing at Stratton Mountain. I lived in Stowe for about 12 years, where I started my career in journalism (I love writing) and I lived in Norwich before finally migrating to Utah, where I've lived for 8 years now.
I love Vermont. If you know, you know why it's such a special place. The sense of community, the Green Mountains, rivers and landscape - even the mostly terrible weather in some ways - gives the state a special character.
We had been thinking about a design that would show a stamp of pride in a simple and bold way - and I think we nailed it. Right now, we are making the VTAF. trucker hat in full camo and either hot pink or silver.
Shortly after launching the style on our website, is when the December round of flooding hit Vermont. Strangely, I was visiting home for both the Irene floods and also the flooding in July of 2023 and witnessed the crazy devastation to many small towns like Winhall and Jamaica. So this time around, we thought, "Hey, maybe we can help!"
For the month of December we donated all thee proceeds from the sale of our Vermont AF trucker hat to the Vermont Flood Response and Recovery Fund. We proudly raised over $600 in a short time!
Now, our goal is to spread the VTAF. vibe nation wide. In addition to selling the hat directly in our online store, we are looking for retail partners. Our competitive retail pricing, allows for a healthy markup and the style has proven success. If you are interested in having the Vermont AF trucker hat in your store - please reach out!
Otherwise, jump on over to the online store and get one for yourself:)
