Mad about Red Ants Pants in Madison







Tour de Pants got off to a great start over the weekend in beautiful and bike friendly Madison! Our great party co-hosts, Claire and Mo, hosted two parties over the weekend to introduce the great women of Madison to Red Ants Pants. Mo is one of the first RAP customers--she purchased the pants in our first year. And it's more than impressive to show off how well the pants wear over three years to new friends of RAP! Our sincere thanks to Claire and her husband David for opening up their home to Tour de Pants.
The afternoon parties featured the inspiring Red Ants Pants slideshow, cold and refreshing Big Sky Brewery beer, and good fun trying on pants--pants that work darn well for all those Wisconsin bike riders, firefighters, yoga instructors, physicists, bike mechanics, and outdoor enthusiasts! We were more than welcomed into this incredible community and thoroughly enjoyed a barbecue to end what was a most gorgeous weekend. The weather's been all too nice for the Upper Midwest at this time of year....
As if we couldn't have had any more fun with our new Madison friends, we capped off the weekend by attending the Old Crow Medicine Show concert! Old Crow is quite possibly one of our favorite band's and we listen daily to their music as we cruise across the country. Old Crow did not disappoint and thanks to our great friend Scott, we have an autographed poster to adorn on Ant Hill's wall!
We leave the "big" (of course everything feels big to us Montana gals) city that feels just like a small town with newly forged friendships and great supporters of our little mission of creating work wear that celebrates women (and talented men too!) workers everywhere.
And we're off to Minneapolis for a coffehouse party!
