    Leadville, CO Area Mags: $$ for a favor?

    Hey any Leadville mags, or people who regularly pass through the area care to help me with something? Probably 30 minutes total of your time, will throw you a few bucks to grab a couple six packs for your time... shoot me a PM.
    Do I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?

    fuck that noise.

    gmen.

    I'm just givin' ya shit. I want one too. I wear my Bross around the house every day but my SOs melly is even softer for casual wear.

    I'm sure you'll find someone soon, but if noone hooks you up in the next few weeks drop me a line. There are some places to ski early season round there.

    I wish they still did online orders. I have two hoodys. I wear one for probably 80% of my ski days.

    Wife told me she wants a new one for christmas. I told her I'd get her one if I could take a long weekend to go get one lol.

    The place is weird, last time I was in there no inventory and the vultures were circling waiting to see what came out next.
    Go by there once a week and could help out.

    I really like my Melanzana's. Both the fleece and a hard face items.

    The wife wore hers a few times in the past 2 years. I sleep with it, eat with it, snuggle it and have dreams of wearing it. She is the weird one obviously.

    This is hilarious. This is a fleece hoody right? Can't you buy those at target?

    I know a kid in Leadville that is all about the hustle. I can about guarantee that he will swoop up all the inventory and fence them on Ebay.

    Is it really cult following causing this?

    Yeah, sorta. I don't know of any others that are the same microgrid fabric, with a hood and kangaroo pocket. It all adds up to a very functional piece from a layering piece, to around the house, to camping, wherever. I have a Bross which is similar grid polartec (and also made in Leadville), but I have to admit it is not as soft as my SOs melanzana, it looks more "technical", it has a zipper instead of kangaroo pocket, and it pils significantly more.

    If you find one, certainly post it up. I'm all for supporting them -- gave them to all my family for xmas a number of years ago. But at this point they don't really need more support.

    Wait, why the hell do they only sell in the store? So vultures who re-sell on ebay make all the profit? Weird.

    Too much demand online. Don't want to raise prices just because they are hip now. Don't want to move production. Not a ton of labor in Leadville. They'd rather sell locally and fairly to their community?

    I think they were having problems keeping up with the demand.

    I've always called those hoodies "Foreskin neck hoodies". Hilarious how popular they are now. Buncha chicks walking around with foreskin necks.

    Last time I was in Vegas it looked like the melly store was closed until further notice. Are they only selling via online lottery these days?
