Need help picking the perfect gift for Dad?

As a dad, let me tell you… it’s easy. We’re not that difficult. We’re not some complex puzzle or a Rubik’s Cube with one side that just can’t be figured out.

We don’t need flashy things…

Unless, of course, that flashy thing comes with 2,600 lumens of raw power. So go smart. Go NEBO.

We just received a wide selection of quality NEBO flashlights for just about any need. Work, camping, emergencies, the garage, the truck, or just walking around the house testing every setting because yes, we absolutely will.

Trust me, Dad will probably play with it more than he uses it.

Stop in and find the perfect one for Father’s Day!

This isn’t a “cheap boot.”
This is a work boot.

Cheap boots don’t fail all at once - they fail quietly.
They lose support.
They stop absorbing impact.
They let your feet roll, slip, and rub.

Surplus Army boots -
Built for long days.
Built for weight.
Built for concrete, gravel, and miles on your feet.

Surplus Army boots aren’t made for 10 minutes of store comfort that turns into back pain a week later.
They’re made to hold up hour after hour.

Available in varying conditions and prices, from new to well-broken-in.
Same military build. Same support.

Designed to perform, not to impress.

Be prepared everyone! State of Emergency has already been declared for Missouri, ahead of the storm. This is going to be a big one, everyone! Stay safe out there! Stop in for your last minute needs because it is better to be safe than sorry!

Side Note: To our online customers. There might be a delay in shipment because... well... obvious reasons. We're getting the last of our latest orders out today and they will get to you as soon as our carrier can get unburied in the snow.

Governor Mike Kehoe has declared a State of Emergency for the entire state due to the winter storm.

Earlier this week, we weren’t expecting much. Now they’re calling for 1-3 inches of snow Friday night, 4–8 inches of snow Saturday, with another 1–3 inches Sunday morning. Depending on how the system shifts, some areas could see ice, power outages, or road conditions that make travel difficult.

At this point, it’s not about panic, it’s about being prepared.

Getting snowed in for a couple days is very possible, especially in rural areas. And if you’re traveling, being stranded in sub-zero temperatures can turn dangerous fast without the right gear.

That’s why now is the time to stock up on:
• MREs & emergency food
• Wool blankets & emergency blankets
• Strike-anywhere matches
• Cold-weather coats, gloves, and socks

These aren’t just for home, they’re smart to keep in your vehicle, too.

Prepared beats unprepared every time.
Swing by and make sure you’re ready before the weather decides for you.
