Brian Stowers
Co-Founder, President
Brian has spent his entire life looking for adventure and exploring every inch of this amazing country he feels so fortunate to call home. He has adopted a famous Mark Twain quote as his mantra - "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by those that you did. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Ben Kieffner
Co-Founder
Getting lost in the right direction in our parks and public lands is what Ben looks forward to most beyond spending time with family and friends. Memories and new adventures are his currency while the fulfillment from doing something that matters - combining purpose and passion - is the fruit of this thing we call LIFE.

Sean Stowers
Operations Manager
Sean’s undeniable love for the outdoors started at a young age while hiking Mount Leconte in the Great Smoky Mountains and has even led him to spending several nights next to the Colorado River at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. If you order something from us, Sean has had a hand in getting it to you as he oversees all operations for Wild Tribute.Â

Alex Lodermeier
Art Director
As a transplant from the midwest Alex has spent the last 20 years discovering what Utah has to offer for hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, snowboarding, and floating down the rivers. When he's not behind a computer creating art, he's out exploring the great outdoors and trying to find the next perfect spot for some tunes with some friends around a campfire.

Jared Kohn
Graphic Designer
Exploring the outdoors and illustrating are a perfect match, a great expression of Jared's love for nature. A road trip through several of the major national parks instilled a huge appreciation for their beauty. Of course, “In design, Mother Nature is our best teacher."

Maximus
Security Guard
Maximus is our loyal security guard. Most park junkies can’t imagine life without their Wild Tribute gear so protecting our warehouse is no joking matter. Maximus has actually caught several international spies in the act of trying to steal our secrets on what makes Wild Tribute clothing so popular. Maximus loves catching Frisbee, chasing squirrels, and eating pup-a-roni.
