The Trail We Blaze

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.

We founded Above Snakes right here in Old Town Albuquerque to challenge a fast-fashion culture that moves too quickly and leaves too much damage in its wake. We don’t care about fleeting trends. We care about timeless pieces built with a conscience.

What We Stand For

• 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 are directly funding a global community of artisans working to leave the world better than they found it.

Step inside, slow down, and choose quality over everything.
