YEA.NICE announces five new all-star reps to their force. The YEA.NICE crew–founded by professional snowboarders JJ Thomas, and Josh Sherman out of Boulder, Colorado–is truly a rider-inspired brand that encompasses a passionate love for the lifestyle they live. The brand currently carries apparel, and headwear.
Read up on the details of this growing team straight from the horses mouth:
Boulder Colorado, (October 12, 2011) — “We always put the needs of our retailers at the top of our list, and over the last year our brand has had a significant amount of growth. We spent a lot of the past 4 months hand picking 5 people that we know will take care of our existing retailers, and pick the right shops to partner with in the future. YEA.NICE stands for a lot of things, and we want to continue to position ourselves as a brand that work hands on with our retailers to help them sell and keep the core values of YEA.NICE, our industry, and their shops values in tact.” – Josh Sherman (co-founder of YEA.NICE)
YEA.NICE Rockies rep T.J Simon says “I look forward to working with a rider-owned lifestyle brand that is as unique and driven as YEA.NICE. “
Combined, the YEA.NICE rep force brings over 60 years of industry experience to the table. They are a passionate, like-minded, hard working crew and we’re excited to have them onboard.
