Timekeeping for All Conditions

When we started Vaer in 2016, we had a simple goal: build the perfect everyday wristwatch. A watch that could be worn from the ocean to the office and everywhere in between.

Since then, we’ve continued to grow and expand our lineup in an effort to re-define expectations of value and performance for an American watch company. While we’ve come a long way, we remain centered around the following product values:

Extreme Water Resistance (for daily ocean use)
2x Interchangeable Straps (for ultimate functionality)
Extensive USA Sourcing (for added quality control)
Refined Aesthetics (for unquestioned good taste)
A Responsible Business (for long-term growth) 

The Original Alaska Outfitter

Since 1897 Filson has built clothing and gear that can be depended upon in the most severe conditions. Our goods have earned the trust of loggers, sportsmen, miners, ranchers and U.S. Forest Service personnel. We build unfailing goods knowing that our customers’ lives may depend on their gear in the backcountry. This steadfast refusal to compromise often results in Filson products being passed to the next generation.

The #1 Mapping Resource for Trout Anglers

Here at TroutRoutes, our mission is to inspire you to explore confidently with insights and knowledge on where you stand. We strive to empower trout anglers with information to help you go further and discover new waters, new places and new faces. TroutRoutes is proud to be able to connect you to local resources and experts, such as fly shops, guides, local brands and non-profits. We are even more proud to do so while helping protect the limited natural resources we all enjoy through value driven initiatives.


Nation Fishing Co.

Nation fishing co. is a fishing tackle and apparel company. We design and develop premium products that will last many lifetimes, whilst doing as little harm to the world around us as possible.

We operate internationally, however our home is in the Catskills mountains of New York, the birthplace of fly fishing in the United States. 

Dette Flies

Established in 1928, Dette Flies is the oldest family run fly shop in the world, now in our 96th year. Our mission has always been, and always will be, to supply the fly fishing community with the finest products and service. Every fly we sell is either tied in house or by a handful of select domestic tiers. 

Since Spring 2018 we moved our location to Livingston Manor with the goal to provide a welcoming space to display our ever growing selection of flies, fly tying materials, and fly fishing gear. Our inventory is solely comprised only of products that meet our demand for high quality standards. The Roscoe shop is closed and is our private residence.

Rocky Talkie

Rocky Talkie was founded in Denver, Colorado in late 2019 by longtime friends and adventure partners Bryce Jones and Alex Page. Having searched in vain for a reliable radio that was easy to use in the backcountry, they set out to create their own.

After several years of prototypes and cycle after cycle of rigorous testing, the Mountain Radio was born: a radio rugged enough to withstand the elements and keep adventurers connected. More recently, the 5 Watt Radio was released to bring the Rocky Talkie experience to a new class of adventure sports.

Breakwater Supply

As humans, we love highlights. But let’s face it: the outdoors aren’t built on highlights. The outdoors are built on rugged, uneven footing, with unpredictable weather and a shortage of daylight. And come to think of it, your life is built on the same stuff. That’s why we make gear for the woods, the water, and everyday life, to take you through any weather while you bounce from one outdoor activity to the next.

Lamson Fly Fishing

Waterworks was formed in 1996 when fishermen who happened to be product designers figured a better way to release a fly-caught fish.

Those same fishermen were also bicycle enthusiasts and prior to forming Waterworks, had honed their skills in the world of high performance cycling, creating and patenting cutting-edge components and mountain bike suspension technology.

In 1998, Waterworks acquired Lamson and, along with Waterworks Force reels, now had two brands sharing the core technology and design ethos of simplicity and function-driven styling. The line-up of reels has radiated into specialized niches over time: two handed, salt water, super-arbor, and rugged environments. The pursuit of inspired design and solid engineering has driven Waterworks-Lamson's fly reel innovation for two decades, with no end in sight…

Lakes Rivers Streams

Lakes Rivers Streams is a company formed at the confluence of art and angling, with its values rooted in creating quality gear and designs that stand out from everything else. The inspiration for the art comes from time on the water, and is taken back to the drawing desk where designs are brought to life. The sole purpose is to create quality gear for anglers that represents our shared passion, and to be worn on and off the water. I love drawing as much as I love fishing, and get equally as stoked on a new piece of art as I do catching a 30 inch trout. I want anyone who wears LRS to feel the same excitement I do while creating it.

Outdoor Life

Outdoor Life has been the go-to publication of America’s diehard hunters, shooters, and anglers since 1898. Our stories are written by hunters, for hunters. We value experience in the field, at the range, and on the water above all else. Our mission is to deliver stories about success in the field, cutting-edge gear, and adventures in far-off wildernesses and close-to-home woodlots. We inspire America’s outdoorsmen and women to chase the critters they’re passionate about and fight for the wild places they love. 

Outdoor Life is part of Recurrent Ventures

Echo Fly Fishing

ECHO is a small, personable company of fly-fisher folk residing in Vancouver, Washington. We are the vision of Tim Rajeff – the culmination of his huge personality and an outlet of both creativity and service to the industry.
