I have never been to Asheville but it's on my list. I couldn't find the vest I was looking for online but was told they might have it in the Asheville store. I called and spoke to Emily and she could not have been nicer and more helpful. She is shipping the vest to me today and I was so pleased. She's a gem!

Went in today looking for a boat bag for my upcoming competition. Jay was extremely great to work with and made sure I found exactly what I was looking for. He’s the man!!
