BIZNOTE: Mystery Made in Admiral adds retail ‘men’s-geared shop’

For 2+ years, Mystery Made has toiled quietly in Admiral: “Generally, we’ve kept the blinds up and just kept our heads down with work,” as proprietor Cory Côté puts it. But now, in time for the holidays, they’ve added something new and invite you to check it out:

We run Mystery Made. Mystery Made is a small design agency here in West Seattle (2727 California Ave) driven by three close friends with years of experience in action sports and brand design. As of last Friday we’ve opened up the front space to be the home to a small brick & mortar men’s-geared shop as well. We’ll also be selling online, but obviously nothing compares to the honest tactile experience so come check it out and try something on. There’s limited space so we’ve curated a small collection of some of the brands we’ve been liking such as the Roark Revival, Electric, Imperial Motion, Field Notes Brand, Draplin Design Co., UCO gear, Volta Sound Co. and our very own Mystery Made goods. We also currently have a curated collection of mounted photography of our good friend and associate photo editor for Snowboarder Magazine, Mike Yoshida. His imagery truly captures the experience of the Northwest winters in the hills.

Mystery Made’s storefront is open 2-7 pm weekdays, noon-6 pm Saturdays.

    Yeah! Glad to see you opened this up Brandon and the rest of the MM crew.

    For the rest, stop by the shop. These guys do great work.

    So stoked on this shop! I will for sure stop in, have seen these guys do amazing art and design over the years…

    Just checked out your website. I dig the retro gifts and NW influenced design. I will swing by the store and shop local WS

    The online “store” has limited sizes available in each style or color, often just one. Will the real store have other sizes for various styles? Looks cool, but had to dim the jets for Holiday shopping.

    Oo, I like the Field Notes brand…shame that it’s a “men’s-geared” store. I’ll hope that there’s a ladies-geared version soon (maybe the Field Notes notebooks will come in pink with little flower designs!). ;)

    So glad these guys opened a storefront. Nice to to have retail space in Admiral. I’ve been following their Art for a few years and love it! Great northwest vibe. Excited that they are selling their own apparel as well as some of my favorite brands. Perfect for the holidays! It’ll be the first place I start my shopping.

    These guys are NW to the core. I’m sure they will curate a great collection. I’ll be stopping by.

    There are at least three women’s shops on California alone; I’m confident the gender balance will survive one men’s shop.

  • Chuck November 24, 2015 (10:45 am)

    Really excited for these guys, I have been a huge fan and supporter for years. Really good people making really cool stuff. Please stop by and have a look, I’m confident you will find something for yourself as well and some holiday shopping. Get in there and support a great small business.

  • RD November 24, 2015 (10:49 am)

    These guys are so talented, I’m excited to have them in our community.

  • LarryB November 24, 2015 (4:35 pm)

    I could probably spend a fair amount of money in that shop. I hope they do well with it.

Sorry, comment time is over.
