Here comes the sun! Time for shorts, tank tops, and the outdoors. You might think you're ready, but there's a few things that you cannot live without this spring/summer season, and Smokin Js has you covered.

Toss your flops and grab a pair of our Nomadic Rope Sandals. Hand-crafted with 100% polypropylene rope, these lightweight sandals will not only be your most comfortable, but your most durable footwear yet! They're color-fast, machine washable, and they come in an assortment of colors and styles for kids, adults, men, and women alike.

Don't go anywhere without a Dime Bag. They come in a variety of styles from pipe pouches to waterpipe duffles, and backpacks to side satchels. Hand stitched with a hemp/polyester mix, these Eco-friendly bags are incredibly durable. Each bag has multiple pockets for the organized traveler and a secret pocket containing a smell and spill proof bag for your discretion. Day trip, hike, or camping, there's a bag for every occasion!

Shade your head with one of our street inspired stash pocket hats from No Bad Ideas. Yes, I said stash pocket. It takes a close eye, but each one has a secret pocket for money, ID, notes, or well, your "stash". Snapbacks, baseball, legion, driver, flat bills, tams, knits, and special female styles... Whatever your pretty little head desires. Especially great for concerts and festivals.

For the smoker on the go, you can be inconspicuous with our Click-n-Hit self lighting pipe. It's so small it can fit right in your pocket and since it looks like an oversized pen, no one will think anything of it. Simply fill it up with your favorite herb, screw back together, click and hit. Life can't get much easier than that. Just be sure to fill the torch lighter with quality butane (we recommend Vector).

Check, check, check, check... OK, NOW you are ready! Here at Smokin Js we try to have something for everyone and every occasion. Be sure to keep us in mind for all of your smoking and alternative fashion needs. We've got you covered.

 

Smokin Js Invaded Seattle for 4/20

Smokin Js invaded Seattle for 4/20 this year.  The universe aligned in a magic way for one of our employees, Josh.  He is a big Supercross fan, and it just so happened that 4/20 was the date for the Seattle Supercross!  So we stuff Josh with a bunch of SmokinJs.com coupon cards, smacked him in the butt, and sent him on his way for a special adventure.

The first stop for Josh was the Seattle Supercross.  The stadium was packed with over 50 thousand people, the races were awesome, and the event had machines that produced giant fireballs throughout the day.  Justin Barcia took the main event win with Ryan Villopoto finishing second.

Josh finished the 4/20 night at The Luxe in downtown Seattle for 420fest.  The club had live music and a full bar.  The Luxe was packed for the event as you can imagine being in Seattle, Washington ... The EVERGREEN State!  We lost track of Josh as he fully submerged himself into festivities of the night, but we were able to find this picture showing Josh partaking in what he called the biggest joint he has ever seen!

You never know where you will find the Smokin Js crew across the Pacific Northwest enjoying a wide variety of events and festivals.  When you fins us be sure to get some free swag and coupons.

 

 

4/20, Smokin Js, and the Brian Grant Foundation

4/20 Sale Fundraiser

 

Smokin Js will donate 10% of all sales on 4/20 to the Brian Grant Foundation, an organization created to "help those affected by Parkinson's disease to live active and fulfilling lives."

 

Please forward this information.

 

We at Smokin Js live with Parkinson's disease every day.  One of our team members, Tmo Teeling, is in a battle with Parkinson's disease.  We wanted to do something special for our annual 4/20 sale event this year.  Supporting Tmo and the Brian Grant Foundation is a perfect addition to the salebration.

 

The Brian Grant Foundation was created by former Portland Trailblazer power forward Brian Grant.  After a 12 year career in the NBA, Brian was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's disease in 2008.

 

Smokin Js very own Tmo Teeling was diagnosed in 2011 with Rapid Onset Distonia Parkinson's disease.  Currently 34 years old, Tmo has worked for Smokin Js for almost two years.  He was no longer able to keep his high tech job at a solar cell manufacturing facility after he became sick and started showing symptoms of Parkinson's disease.  Smokin Js was very fortunate to be on the list of dream jobs for Tmo.  Since joining the team, Tmo hasn't just fit in, but thrives.  Tmo brings a product and technical knowledge of Smokin Js merchandise that few people possess.  He also takes great pride in helping customers with care and attention.  Tmo consistently takes notes on the little hard-to-find items customers are looking for, and does the research to find the items in the nooks and crannies of Smokin Js inventory.  Tmo puts so much care and attention into special customer requests that we created a new position and title and threw it into his daily job duties.

 

Smokin Js, Tmo, and the Brian Grant Foundation have a natural synergy.  The Brian Grant Foundation was created to help families affected by Parkinson's disease to fulfill active lives.  Despite Tmo's diagnosis of Rapid Onset Distonia Parkinson's, he manages to lead a very active lifestyle.  He works over 30 hours per week at Smokin Js, and manages to be in charge of maintenance issues and special customer requests.  However, Tmo's true passion has become his motorcycle and racing.  Tmo owns a 2006 1000cc Kawasaki Ninja.  He doesn't just ride the bike, he loves to race it!  He considers himself to be an avid enthusiast with experience at the Portland International Raceway School.  Parkinson's doesn't slow him down on the motorcycle.  The adrenaline helps his body focus and he gets lost on his motorcycle pushing his limits and forgetting about his Parkinson's disease.  Racing is something he can still do and excel at.  He believes his motorcycle racing skills have actually improved since being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Saturday, 4/20, 10% of all sales will go to the Brian Grant Foundation.  Smokin Js will have special sales and door prizes going all day on 4/20 to support the event.  Come on down to one of our physical retail stores and join in the fun, celebration, and charity event.  All online sales from the SmokinJs.com web site will also be included in the donation total.  We love our customers, thank you for helping us help families affected by Parkinson's disease.

Featured Blower - Scomo Moanet

As an organization Smokin Js takes pride in supporting local glass blowers.  But we don't stop there; we require our glass blowers not just to be great artists, but good citizens as well.  We believe strongly in the karma of a pipe, and we want customers to know when they buy a pipe from Smokin Js they are getting a good product made by good people.  Scott Moan is one of Smokin Js longest tenured glass blowers and one of our favorites!

 

Scott Moan, aka Scomo Moanet has been blowing glass for 12 years, 6 of them for Smokin Js.  He is 33 years old and based out of Salem, Or.  Scott lives with his girlfriend of 10 years, Jessica.  The two took a big step about a year ago welcoming Penelope into their house.  Penelope is a 115lb Great Dane;)  Scott has a style unlike any other glass blower.  He prefers to keep his hair tight and wears sweaters with button down shirts.  Scott lives by the same creedo as Jay of Smokin Js, "Not trying to be the coolest, just the best."  When he is off the torch, Scott loves to stay in touch with his favorite football team, the Liverpool Reds.  Football is played with a round ball in Scott's world.

As a glass blower, Scomo Moanet is always coming up with new and innovative glass creations.  You won't find another reverse shower head bubbler like Scomo's anywhere!  However, as much as his latest line of sherlock bubblers have captivated glass enthusiasts, it's his Dot Box blowing technique that wows Smokin Js customers every day.  Dot Box is a unique glass blowing technique that is hard to perform and duplicate.  The Dot Box technique creates a pipe that looks like stained glass when it colors in.  Scomo Moanet says,
"Dot Box is a technique of laying fumed dots on top of other fumed dots.  Each spoon I make uses approximately 5 feet of rod.  I'm probably approaching laying about 1 million dots."

One of the best attributes that keep people coming back for more Scomo Moanet glass is the value for quality proposition.  At Smokin Js we always put function, quality, and value at the top of the list when we select glass blowers and pipes.  Scott Moan hits a home run every time with each creation he melts into our cases.  Click here to see Scott's entire selection of glass available at Smokin Js.

Slightly Stoopid @ Crystal Ballroom

Recently Slightly Stoopid visited Portland, Oregon and headlined at the Crystal Ballroom.  Being a Slightly Stoopid fan is a prerequisite for employment at Smokin Js!  We had to be there.  Josh and Megan were sent to represent Smokin Js, hand out some free swag, and enjoy the show.

Josh & Megan @ Slightly Stoopid Jan 2013

It was a sold out show! The Crystal Ballroom had a solid line up: Sindicate followed by Marlon Asher aka the Ganja Farmer to get the crowd pumped up for the main attraction. And they did a damn good job. Normally I hate crowded places, but if I had to be shoulder to shoulder in a crowd, and get real close and personal with some strangers, I couldn't have hand-picked better people. The ballroom buzzed with feel good vibes from the stage to the balcony to the sidewalks of Burnside.

The Sindicate, local to Vancouver Wa, were stoked to be kicking off the night. Lead singer, Dominic got a good reaction from the crowd when he puff puff passed his joint into the crowd. Of course, in Oregon our good friend maryjane is still illegal so it was eventually confiscated. ;) The Ganja Farmer kept the momentum going. The Crystal Ballroom has what is referred to as a "floating floor" and I LOVE it. For me to be able to actually feeeel the music, no psychedelics required, is so cool to me. When Slightly Stoopid took the stage, it was on! They started it off with songs from their new album "On top of the World" and of course had to throw in some of the older favorites. By this time, you could see the steady glow of a burning joint being passed along the crowd. At one point, I was getting them from both sides. 8D .

Fearing the end, "Encore" was chanted until they returned to the stage. Sightly Stoopid thrives on their live shows, and they didn't let us down with a multiple song encore finish. But like all good things, the night had to come to an end and we left the smoke filled Crystal Ballroom.

I do have to admit that I'm a little bummed that they didn't play "Mellow Mood", but I can't complain. It was a killer show! I learned that I could jam out to a saxophone all day long, met some awesome people, and got to see some BEAUTIFUL dreads. This was my first time seeing them live, but I know it will surely not be my last.

 

Thanks to everyone psyched to get Smokin Js freebies and say hello;)
