It’s always the case when a stores stocks a selection of well
designed products; you end up with strong urges to buy the whole lot.
Restraint is always needed to stop yourself from added products
willy-nilly into your basket. No use for a 1920’s shoe rack? Us neither. Never heard of the only company in Slovakia making soap from recycled
roller blades? Neither had we, but sometimes it’s how things and
packaged and presented that tips us over the edge.
One fine culprit of making us say, “Oh yeah, I could really use some
of that” is the family-run business, Other Brothers. Based in San
Francisco, Other Brothers is a group of siblings who decided to change
direction from their original plan to work for the big guys such as Nike
+ Google, and switched gears to follow their real passion.
Gaining experience on farms and within
the agricultural trade stamped in a grounded foundation from an early
age. And to follow their dreams of creating their own product, something
they would truly be proud of, is always one worth getting behind.
The Other Brothers are producing some ace looking stuff; like
their signature California Gunpowder spice mix, Tuscan-style Robust
Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and sweet gifts like their Picnic Kit and the apron in collaboration with Alice Wiese.
It’s only a small selection of products, but each items comes in its
own unique style of packaging, is made with a whole bunch of love and
hard work, and is all currently in our basket. Damn, their plan worked!
