In 2008, Outside Magazine named Horny Toad as a “Best Place to Work!” With the help of the Outdoor Industry Association and Best Company Group, Outside Magazine conducted extensive employee surveys - designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers. Judging criteria included a great work environment, how a company promotes an environmentally friendly business process and how they create a work-outdoor life balance for employees.

Everyone at Horny Toad completed the survey - anonymously - so answers were honest. "It truly is a great place to work. We are all part of a small company that is growing and working towards a shared goal. When you feel part of something it just feels good. The motivation to do right by the company is strong and I feel like I really contribute to its goals. Plus, everyone here is super fun to work with. They are all very qualified and smart, but also know when to laugh and have a good time. It's the perfect balance."

We know we enjoy working at Horny Toad, but we're super-stoked to get some recognition for it. Congrats to all the honorees and thanks Outside Magazine for telling the world!

The choices we make are as important as the clothes we create. We try each day to lighten our environmental footprint, be good partners in all of our relationships, pay attention and stay active in our communities and support organizations that improve our world - the source of our daily adventures.
