Kep’s Balls

Kep’s Balls – www.kepsballs.com

Kep’s Balls were created in Kep Heinitz’s kitchen after my many outings and choosing not to eat the nutrition bar that he had in his pack. Kep is an avid cyclist, beekeeper, and anthropologist. “I started doing research in ancient foods that our ancestors lived and thrived on, which became my drive for including these rich ingredients in my natural energy fuel.  I feel that the nutrients that our bodies’ need and deserve occur in nature instead of in laboratories.” Not only are they amazingly tasty, they are also packed full of nutrients our bodies’ can break down efficiently and utilize!

ISAORA – www.isaora.com
Founded in early 2008 in New York City by two friends and avid snowboarders – ISAORA proves that technical performance and high style need not be mutually exclusive. Having spent the better part of our youths entrenched in the street and snowboard culture, but like many first generation snowboarders, having long since outgrown our anti-establishment views and no longer convinced baggier-is-better or brighter-is-bolder, we imagined a brand that offered a more versatile, fashion-forward option for both men and women. At ISAORA, we will forever be drawn to snow, inspired by adventure, and awed by nature, but more importantly, we are dedicated to stomping a new path in performance wear. Whether you confront the elements on snow-covered peaks or a driving rainstorm in the concrete jungle of everyday city life, ISAORA provides style, performance, and protection wherever your adventure takes you.
