In the old days, being "above snakes" meant you were alive, well, and ahead of the game. To us, it's a daily reminder of how we choose to live, breathe, and build a wardrobe. Founded in 2022 right here in Old Town Albuquerque, we set out to challenge a fast-fashion culture that moves too quickly and leaves too much damage in its wake.
Radical Intention
Every thread, lifestyle piece, and object in our shop is hand-curated for its durability, design, and story.
Deep Sustainability
We partner exclusively with designers and independent makers who put the planet and its people first.
Community First
When you invest in a piece from us, you aren't just buying clothes — you're directly funding a growing local movement. Every purchase helps power free small business spotlights and free classes for fellow makers, and funds Slow Market itself, so independent artisans can sell in Old Town without ever paying a vendor fee.
Step inside, slow down, and choose quality over everything.
