Proctor & Pints: Olympia Coffee Time Machine
You do a double take. You so a triple take. You take another sip of your Cortado AND lean into a fourth take. You asked the barista, “Did I just exit Rufus’ time machine phonebooth with Bill and Ted and arrived in 1988? Olympia Coffee Roasters’ merch is trending back to 1990s nostalgia with their branded fanny pack made by Known Supply, a socially minded, apparel brand with roots in Uganda.
Yes, the Olympia Coffee Roasters in Tacoma’s Proctor District is selling a fanny pack — and it’s badass. Half of your smile nods the fanny pack’s ethically made journey through sustainable practices; the other half responds to the craftmanship complete with two pockets protected with sturdy zippers.
The fanny pack has been around for 5000 years, but she’s making a comeback in Proctor District.
Celebrate With A Beer
Strap on your new Known Supply “Olympia Coffee” fanny pack and head down the street to Peaks & Pints to show the crowd that will be totes the rage. Grab E9 Brewing’s Tacoma Boys Fresh Crop (6.5%) from the cooler and, as legally required, have the staff open and pour the West Coast Style IPA into a pint while you show the “fireplace table” your new look. Back at your bar stool, dip your nose in for peachy stone fruit, grapes, and melon vibes. Brewed with experimental HBC 1019, Nelson Sauvin and Enigma hops, enjoy the orange citrus the Tacoma brewery brewed with Tacoma Boys and H & L Produce.
