Snoloha in Sweden

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

This is cool…Snoloha in Sweden, at an Ice Bar & Hotel.

Thanks Derek, for sending these in…and for thinking of Snoloha. I wonder what role the vodka played in these shots.

Yes, this is your winner for April’s Snapshots & Scenery. That means Derek gets even more Snoloha gear to wear on his next vacation.

Remember, if you want a chance to win free Snoloha gear of your own and instantly become the coolest person in your social circle, there are 3 ways to do so:

It’s a Karma Thing

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Here’s the deal…as an entrepreneur there is an inherent responsibility to give back. I’ve had numerous ideas on how to best do this. But one of the most straight forward and inspiring comes from TOMS shoes and is a simple premise ~ “For every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need.”

It’s a great brand and an amazing story…one that I’m happy to pass along and be very transparent in letting you know it’s the inspiration behind my thoughts here.

So when you spend at least $20.00 on Snoloha gear (which is not hard to do), I’m gonna send you a shirt to donate however you please…a local Salvation Army, Goodwill, a friend that’s fallen on hard times or someone who simply needs a little pick me up.

The idea being to put a smile on someone’s face and a fresh, clean shirt on their back.

How am I gonna do this? Simple. As a clothing based company you acquire plenty of miscellaneous shirts along the way. It’ll be a mix of clearance items and samples. I’ve got a fair amount to start with and if this works then I’ll order more shirts specifically for this cause.

How will I know you donated the shirt? Karma. What’s karma? “Do good things and good things happen. Do bad things and bad things happen.” ~ Jason Lee as Earl Hickey in “My Name is Earl”

So there you have it. Please feel free so spread the word. And as always thanks for the continued support.

Snapshots & Scenery

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

I must say that this was a first…a Snapshots & Scenery photo featuring a birdie…and not the kind that flies or on a Tiger Woods scorecard. I’m happy to say that it was not directed at me, but rather Seattle Dave (I think)…and knowing Seattle Dave, he probably deserved it.

Also pictured is the Des Moines (Washington) Softball Club sporting there Snoloha hoodies.

Keep those photos coming!

Snoloha Pint Glasses

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

I’ve had a lot of interest and feedback regarding the new Snoloha Pint Glasses. Pre-orders have already been requested on Facebook and Twitter. So, here’s the deal:

Pre-order now for $7.50 each. The regular price will be around $10.00 – $12.00, so there’s a nice discount for ordering early (especially if you are stocking the bar).

Shoot me a note and let me know how many you want. You won’t have to pay until I have them in stock and ready to ship (approx 2 weeks).

Cheers!

    Luvin’ the Feedback

    Friday, April 17th, 2009

    Sales are a good thing, after all that’s what will allow this company to stay in business and grow. However as crazy as this seems, comments like this are just as important (if not more):

    “I knew the lifestyle I try to lead was called something, just couldn’t put a name to it until now.”

    THAT is the reason I launched this brand to begin with…the lifestyle and the connection I was hoping it would have with people.

    Now….buy something!

    New Design For Your Wearing Pleasure

    Thursday, April 16th, 2009

    You voted for it…so here it is, the Snoloha Contrast design.

    We printed this on a new style. It’s a super soft, 100% ringspun cotton. The design is printed with a fashion soft ink which give it a “soft hand”…yea, that’s a funny term that I like to use (even out of context just so I can say it). Pair this T up with some Lounge Pants, and you’re bound to get absolutely nothing accomplished, except for polishing off a pot of coffee or a six-pack (don’t ask how I know that).

    This particular shirt is not as generous of a fit as the other Snoloha t’s, so if you’re on the fence between sizes…go up.

    Gals, here’s your link. And Guys…here’s yours.

    And if you’re in the mood for shopping, don’t forget about all the other new gear. And please ignore the really bad photo of the Gals grey lounge pants…it’ll be replaced soon.

    Snapshots & Scenery

    Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

    I know Rob already has enough Snoloha gear, but with all the great photos he’s been sending in he might end up with more. This is one of my favorites…and is proof that Katie gets her good looks from her mom.

    We are halfway through April so there is still time for your chance to win Snoloha gear (and you’re photos don’t have to include Snoloha clothing, but could also reflect the Snoloha lifestyle), there are 3 way to do so:

    A Little Behind the Scenes

    Monday, April 13th, 2009

    Lots happening…so I thought I’d give ya a quick update on a few things:

  • The Contrast design is printed and I should have initial inventory in stock tomorrow.
  • Joe has been working on more designs. I will unveil soon.
  • Had a good conversation with Oliver in Spain and will explain in more detail later, but Snoloha International continues to move forward.
  • In the beginning stages of developing a Snoloha mascot.
  • Working on a new promo that should also double as a great way to give back.
  • That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Stand by for more details.

    Snoloha at Sebring

    Friday, April 10th, 2009

    A big thanks to Brian and Bobo and the gang at NM3 Magazine for grabbing this photo of Snoloha representing at the Sebring International Speedway.

    This is definitely a first…Snoloha Driftwood & a BMW. Could be a front runner for April’s Snapshots & Scenery winner out of shear (is that spelled right?) originality. (Wanna chance to win? Read some posts below for instructions). And if you’d like your own Snoloha Driftwood…here’s the link.

    Thanks again fellas.
