[leadin]A quirky shop in Minneapolis along the bank of the Mississippi River represents a new wave of outdoor retail.[/leadin]
Repair Lair brands itself as a “repair and consignment shop that specializes in outdoor gear and clothing,” which is accurate, but doesn’t tell the whole story.
Within the squat retail space lay a handful of aisles, shelves, and hooks all stuffed with a motley collection of coats, backpacks, boots, shoes, hats, gloves, lanterns, snow pants, and anything else that once had a home and is now ready for another. Just beyond the piles of for-sale wares are a line of sewing machines, work tables, a dizzying array of fabric swatches and scrap materials, and a formidable collection of zippers, buttons, and miscellaneous fasteners of all shapes, colors, and sizes.
