Living in NYC forces you to adopt the phrase “quality not quantity”. When I was young, my father bought me this green canvas backpack from Costco. I loved that bag, thick canvas, deep pockets a key ring and big thick shoulder straps. This was my school bag for years, and became a trusted companion for my little jaunts around the farm and through the fields.

My desire for adventure and need of quality items with limited space only grew as I moved to NYC as an adult. While living in the country I had access to limited resources, but ample amounts of space. Now, things have flipped, NYC contains more goods and services in a square block than my entire town has ever had. This is why I have start this page, to help you find what you need! I don’t mind spending my money on quality goods, because it means I only have to purchase 1. In addition I know that it isn’t just the product I am purchasing, but the warranty and support team that backs their products. I’ve had to learn the hard way and end up buying multiple crapy products that end up taking up precious space, only to break, rip and tear.
