Arbor Profile
Company Description
The Arbor Collective will be filling a new in-house apparel sales position to take advantage of the brand's expanding distribution opportunities.
Since 1995, the Arbor Collective has helped lead the charge toward sustainability within Action Sports. In recent years, our apparel division has transcended Arbor's traditional distribution channels with a line that blends the brand's sustainable design heritage and surf/skate/snow roots with contemporary art-driven, performance-minded fashion.
In addition to our Action Sports account base, Arbor's apparel division now services a range of forward thinking outdoor shops as well as important fashion, urban, art, and eco boutiques and higher-end chains. Taking advantage of this wider, horizontal distribution opportunity is the focus of Arbor's apparel division.
