Lilypond

I found out about this brand randomly — I saw a woman at DIA carrying a very cute bag and was squinting trying to figure out what brand it was when my husband ran up to ask her. Turns out they’re a Colorado company that makes REALLY well constructed stuff, with thoughtful features (nice molded bottom so the bags don’t collapse, water bottle holders built in, all recycled materials etc) that make you wonder why the hell other companies don’t think about stuff like that.
Their customer service is also outstanding. I walked into their showroom/​warehouse today and while my toddler ran around and played with their dogs, these guys spent a ton of time digging around for me for a discontinued color I’d seen online. They then found a bag I liked even better than the one I’d seen, and sold it to me at a truly insane discount. Really nice guys, really great vibe, and most importantly, awesome bags.
(Turns out they also make a parallel line of stuff for guys (FishPond) that is supposed to be for fly fishing but looks like really stylish gear in general — all in the same shop.)
