In the process, doggie mangled the zipper and chewed a hole in one of the pockets. While at Backcountry Essentials (also in Bellingham) I was reminded of Larrabee Gear Works and gave them a call. I got a quote to fix the zipper that was less than buying another new pack, plus the pack was otherwise in perfect condition and felt wasteful to just buy another one out of convenience. The turnaround was way faster than anticipated and you can't tell there was ever any damage. The repair even included the hole in the pocket. I mean wow. Somewhere I read that my item may be returned in better condition than received. In this case, I can verify that to be true. Seriously, it may be more convenient to buy a new thing, but by doing the environment a solid you're also helping some local folks make a living at their business.

I also couldn't resist one of their custom Madrona Wear t-shirts and a super cool ink patch made by a local artist. The shop is full of unique finds and creative energy. What really stood out was the story behind the business--starting in a garage and growing into a full brick-and-mortar store. You can feel the passion when you walk in. While I was there, they were actively working on custom shorts and pants right in the shop. You can tell they're the real deal. They also offer repair services and can fix just about anything--so cool to see that kind of sustainable, skill-based work happening locally. If you're in Bellingham, this is definitely a spot worth checking out.
