The Story
We have a big family. 9 to be exact. We’ve driven from the Outer Banks to the Gulf Coast to the Rocky Mountains to Olympic NP to Biscayne NP, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in search of adventure. And, wherever we go, we buy a sticker for that big white van pictured here at Badlands National Park. Speaking of which, it was there, in the Cedar Pass Lodge gift shop where the seed for Smoky Outfitters was planted. At checkout, they had a sticker identical to one in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, they’d just swapped the words. I called the guy who distributed them. A few bucks for a piece of cheap clip-art from Asia, slap it on a piece of vinyl, and there you have it. A keepsake.
Well, that wasn’t what I was looking for so I started making my own. The rest is history.

Smoky Outfitters has been a fantastic new sticker line for Brownfield's. Matt is extraordinarily talented and creates highly unique images that capture the heart of the destination. He is creative, professional, responsive, and enthusiastic. Say goodbye to the same old stickers and connect with Matt for something totally fresh and exclusive to your business.

Matt has designed many incredible graphics for our T-shirt shop in Alaska over the years! When coming to him with an idea, I really appreciate him taking the time to discuss design ideas, overall concept, and style. Within a week of chatting with him, he sent a first draft, as well helped send some initial mockups for t-shirt color schemes. There is a lot to consider with T-shirt designs, as we are limited on the number of colors we can use, so I really love that he makes the extra effort. It's an absolute dream to work with someone so talented, who has a great concept of design for apparel, and is incredibly efficient on top of it all."

Smoky Outfitters is the best in the sticker game. We have done business with dozens of sticker vendors and still do. However, Smoky Outfitters proved they care about giving our location its own unique designs, found only here. Everything was done thoughtfully, timely, and they turned our ideas into awesome pieces of sticker art. In my nearly 20 years buying for BNHA, I can't think of a more helpful and pleasant company to work with.

I fell in love with Smoky Outfitters while on vacation in Ocracoke Island, NC. I bought a few stickers and, the longer I looked at the intricate details, the more I realized I HAD to have some of these stickers in my shop in St. John, USVI. Artist Matt Brass took the time to discuss my needs and visions for our stickers. I feel like he represented our business and our island home perfectly. I look forward to working with Matt on future projects. My customers love his art.
