Greetings,
My second trip to Guatemala has taught me a lot about Fair Trade and how it benefits everyone involved. It's a great feeling. I've got it all covered in my second installment below.
Need another bag for your late summer trip? It's in-stock! I can't tell you how proud I am of our crew in achieving 99% in-stock inventory status for our complete line of products. If you want it, darn near guaranteed we'll ship it out immediately.
Hey, anybody want to help test a new luggage ID system? Email me. Oh, and check the T-shirt offer below.
Enjoy the last dog day of summer!
Cheers,
Jim Markel, Co-owner, Red Oxx Manufacturing

JIM'S GUATEMALAN ADVENTURE, PART 2
Return of the Monkey King 2007
Jim catches up on his Fair Trade business adventure in Guatemala where the tale of the Monkey's Fist unravels with a new production facility and above average living wages. Red Oxx contributes to the quality of life of the people living deep in the mountains of Guatemala, makers of the Monkey's Fist. Here's Jim's Part 2 follow up to Guatemala...
I'd been on the road for three weeks for the annual trade shows and had just enough time to do some laundry and catch the next flight south. As you know, I like to keep up-to-date on the latest boarding regulations. Let's see what the fine folks at TSA were dealing out...
The liquid rules weren't winning awards from the traveling public. First rule I broke was too large a container (even though I had only 3 three ounces in it). Then it got worse. Back out of line and down to the service counter, I found my Sherpa Jr. Expedition Duffel was already loading. Typical luck! Tossed my toiletries in the trash and got back in line.
I'd hate to guess how much money's been tossed into the rubbish since the new boarding rules. To get around the restrictions, I suggest Solid Shampoo from lush.com. Many unique toiletry items like Ambrosia Shaving Oil. Quality is superb. Highly recommended for carry on travel.
I replaced my toiletries at The Body Shop. Of course, now that I was inside the security zone, container size didn't matter... Hmm, what's wrong with this scenario? read more

NEWS AND EVENTS
Ship it When?
With backorder delays down to less than 1%, Red Oxx can now say they will ship your order out the same day or next day. We've spoken of our Kan Ban inventory system before, and now enough time and effort have been put into it to deliver on its promise. Of course, we've added our own Montana spin on how it works exactly, and invested in our building in other ways. But wow, it's really paying off.
If you're ever passing through Montana, please drop by and we'll give you the tour! read more
