How Pineside Outdoors Built Community Around Outdoor Apparel And Performance Gear | Joe Strong
Description
We sit down with Joe Strong of Pineside Outdoors to unpack how a few garage-made hats became a growing outdoor brand and why quality control, painful sampling, and honest field testing matter more than hype. Along the way we talk dogs, duck seasons, sonar debates, and building gear that actually survives ice, mud, and long mornings.
• origin of Pineside from homemade hats to brand
• moving from blanks to full manufacturing
• sampling failures, sunk costs, and protecting trust
• sourcing, moqs, tariffs, and cash flow risk
• fit, function, and material choices that matter
• year-long wader testing and transparent updates
• dog training principles and first-season readiness
• duck hunting as bass fishing by another name
• technology ethics and efficiency in the field
• Bassmaster expo realities and tournament humility
• roadmap of hoodies, base layers, gloves, dry bags, waders
