Vagabond by Schuyler

Our very own, Schuyler McFerran, made a batch of mexican-blanket board bags for the shop!

Each of them are unique, and each of them are hand sewn by Schuyler.

6 feet in length // wide enough for nearly any fish

Jeffrey Beach Kid

My brother, Jeffrey Allee, is now officially the Almond shop manager. He'll be running the show 10-4 weekdays. I'll be at the shop 4-6 weekdays and all day Saturday. He's been doing a great job running the shop recently, and this frees me up to do more things we want to do with Almond, moving forward.
So stop by and visit Jeff, and bring him a Dr. Pepper or something.
