Where can I shop for Aptos Ranch apparel?

Right now we only have an online presence. In the meantime, we are working on expanding our offerings to brick and mortar shops.

Maybe one day, if we work very hard, never take time off, save all of our money and accomplish all of our goals, we can open an AR branded shop of our own. And then use that experience to keep doing that until the end of time or humanity, whichever comes first.

Seriously though, it would be nice to have our own store. Stay tuned.

Why did you decide to name your brand Aptos Ranch?

The original land grant that created the modern town of Aptos was called Rancho Aptos, when it was passed from the Mexican government to a member of a government connected landowning family. However, long before that, the land of Aptos belonged to the indigenous people of the Aptos tribe who had lived since time immemorial off of the bounty that the land and sea had provided them - hunting, fishing, and harvesting staples like acorns, coffeeberry fruit and wild blackberries.

My connection to nature began as a young child growing up in Aptos; among the forests and on the beach. That connection continued throughout my travels, and remains rooted in the Monterey Bay - a place that I appreciate now more than I did as a boy.
