Go Outside!

April 30, 2008 17:47 by JCahill

Hello again friends and acquaintances,

We've been through this before. Spring is here! Go outside! Around two o'clock this afternoon I stepped outside for lunch and I will admit it, I did not want to go back inside. I am absolutely positive a lot of you are sharing the same sentiment. We want to take this opportunity to introduce you to some new friends. If you are a frequent visitor you may have noticed some subtle changes and additions lately. We have added a few new brands that we are more than excited about. To help incorporate these new brands into our name we will slowly be transitioning from Brown's New Balance to Brown's Catalog, encompassing not only the tried and true New Balance but also Merrell, Rafters, Teva, KeenUnstructured by Clarks and Fishpond bags.
Any Questions? Of course! Allow me to introduce:



 Merrell's philosophy, "Merrell believes in continuously expanding the outdoor journey of discovery and freedom. Being outside brings us adventure and exhilaration, as well as self-knowledge and fulfillment. It blurs the boundaries between people and cultures, uniting those who enjoy exploring and seeking out new experiences. Merrell believes in encouraging and equipping everyone to get outside. It doesn't need to be complicated-outside is where you find it." So get outside in the ladies Siren Sport or the men's Moab Ventilator hiking styles. Or kick around town in the ladies strappy San Remo.

 

Wear Rafters. Tread Lighter.
During the last ten years, Rafters designers and product managers have devised innovative methods of producing footwear using recycled materials.
  • Upper webbing is made of recycled PET from plastic water and soda bottles.
  • Outsoles are made from 25% recycled rubber.
  • Lining is made from 60% bamboo fiber.
  • Mid wedges and outsoles are infused with jute plant fiber and cork, reducing the amount of rubber needed for production.

Tread lighter with supportive cushioning in men's and women's Tsunami's.



Mark Thatcher, a boatman on the Colorado observed a problem over 20 years ago and provided a solution.
On countless river trips it happened, clients wearing water-logged sneakers would be envious of the flip-flops worn by the boaters at that time. However, while the flip-flops were quick drying, they were too flimsy for the rugged terrain of the Canyon. With that problem in mind an idea sparked the birth of an industry. In 1984 the sport sandal was born...and it worked! The brand name Teva (pronounced "teh-vah") is a Hebrew word meaning "nature" and the hand symbol in their logo is the Hopi symbol for "Friendship" and "Water." For over 20 years Teva has remained committed to both innovation in footwear and protection of the waterways around the world. Innovate your outdoor experience with either the
Terra Fi 2 or the Hurricane, available in both men's and women's styles.



In January of 2003 Keen began with a moment of Pure Vision, with a simple design challenge: Can a sandal protect toes? The answer was yes. Thus was born the Newport and expanding from that the Keen philosophy: Hybrid products that allow consumers to connect with the outdoors in its entirety. Even the box is 100% hybrid, made entirely of recycled materials and easily collapsible for recycling. "Create. Play. Care. It's a way of life. We (Keen) call it HybridLife.TM" About 70% of the earth is water so if you're feeling amphibious or even if you want to keep your sea legs on solid ground go hybrid in the Venice H2, Newport H2 or stick to the sand and land with the Calistoga or the Newport.

*Keen are also available for the little ones.

For a more casual day slip into the soft, lightweight and flexible Un-structured line. Clarks' unique Air Circulation System, a climate control technology, allows warm moist air inside the shoe to escape and replaces it with ambient outside air. Keep your feet cool while you kick it in the Un-Loop, Un-Sailor or the Un-Piper casual shoes and sandals.



Last but not least. The Fishpond bags and backpacks are a perfect compliment to each of the new brands.
"Fishpond is connected to the past and its timeless traditions, but its focus is on making designs for the outdoor enthusiast that will endure the future."
At fishpond, their goal is to build a reputation for unmatched quality among the outdoor enthusiasts using thier products. Fishpond soft goods are covered by a lifetime guarantee. Please feel free to
contact us here at Brown's for details. Go outside fully equipped with the rugged Prairie Grass Kit Bag or the Barcelona Street Backpack.

Everyone acquainted? Good. So Go Outside and enjoy the good life in our new brands!
