Back Forty Lifestyle Co.

We were nominated by one of our wonderful customers Sarah and were treated to lunch today by Browns Socialhouse PG ! They are running an awesome Shop Local Saturday promo to show some love to local businesses and we are beyond grateful to have been selected! Thanks Dana & Nick! PS, if our store smells like deliciousness today, it’s because of them!

The snow is still falling and it looks like snowy adventures will be around a little while longer! What adventures do you have planned to make the most of our remaining snowy season?

The time has come to say goodbye to our very first design, The Alex. We have a handful left online and in the store in heather red and heather purple and some prior colors (navy blue & grey) in size XS only available in the store. There will be no more print runs done with this design. But don’t worry, the distressed Alex 2.0 in black (currently only on tees) will be making its way to a new hoodie soon as the replacement as we continue to transition our hoodie line!

Oh hello everyone! I’ve been MIA on social media for a self-imposed break for a little while, but I’m back! Everything is all good, sometimes you just have to take a few steps back before you can go forward, so that is what I did! First things first, we have some exciting news to share with all of you! We have acquired the vacant space beside our store and are turning that into our new printing studio/workspace! What that means is that we will have the room to add a couple ...key pieces of equipment needed to grow our production AND we will be expanding the store space (into the current printing area)and bringing in a bunch of other awesome outdoor products! We are super fortunate to be in a place of expansion after all of the events of the last year and definitely have all of you to thank! We couldn’t do it without you and are so appreciative of all of your support! Here’s to the next step!

And just like that, it’s Christmas Eve! We’re here from 9-12 today and then we’re shuttin’er down until the 29th! Merry Christmas to all of you from our little crew!

Christmas is comin in hot! Our last round of local deliveries will go out the morning of Monday Dec 21st! **Some items that were showing sold out have been re-stocked, if something is still showing as sold out we will not have it until the new year.** The cutoff for local delivery orders will be Saturday the 19th @5PM so that we’ve got a buffer to get everything ready to head out Monday. Local deliveries have the same flat $5 fee as shipping, if you’re in Prince George we d...eliver them personally to the shipping address entered at checkout! www.backfortylifestyleco.ca

Happy sunny Saturday! We are in the store our usual 10-4 today. **Changes to normal hours next week: we will be closed Tuesday along with Remembrance Day on Wednesday. We will be open again Thursday at 10am!

That Black and Teal Hoodie Very limited quantities (and no 2XL) available on the website and in-store until hopefully the end of next week. We are now starting to really feel the domino effect of covid in our industry. Trying to navigate a clothing brand while suppliers are becoming supremely backordered (4-6 weeks on some items) due to earlier production slowdowns, while we ramp up for the holiday season is not the easiest of tasks. We will likely have to use alternate color choices in some instances and delay some planned designs entirely. Please bear with us through this one folks!

Our 12 Days of Christmas Day 9! All online orders placed between now and 6PM PST Dec 8 will be entered into a draw to win a $100 gift card from us! *Applies to online purchases only.

Happy freakin Full Hunter‘s Moon Halloween Saturday! Today’s a mouthful! You might spy with your little eye a sneak peak of another new design The Upnorther, for all our fellow Upnorthers. This will drop shortly, I’m just finalizing the test prints & garment selections! #builtforthebackforty #livewildly #mybackfortylife

The Mel. If this one looks familiar, that’s because it is! It was previously known as the Melanie and only available on tanks. The Mel is bigger, bolder and a little more rough around the edges. #builtforthebackforty #livewildly #mybackfortylife

Or do they?! These soaps are always a hit!

This one is for the locals! Our local lakes collection...is available at last! Yes, I know, I missed a few dozen lakes. We have far too many for them all to have made the cut for this one! I hope you love them as much as I do! Last weekend I got to be the person behind the camera which was SUCH a blast for me! We lucked out with a gorgeous day out at the lake for this shoot with Riley and Joelle. ... www.backfortylifestyleco.ca

Hi guys! Remember when I said new things were coming after our t-shirt line conversion and then I disappeared on social media for a few weeks? To be honest, I (Shelly) had to take a social media time out, to get things in line around here and keep my head on straight! Happy to say things are now getting back on track thanks to our newest team member Avary getting trained up super fast AND one more coming on-board this week! Here are a couple of the newest additions to the l...ineup. The Paddler Collection and the Not Yer Average Woodsman Collection. These are live on the website now. Thanks for bearing with me while I yet again took on too much this summer and then got to dig myself out. Stay tuned for more tomorrow. www.backfortylifestyleco.ca

Did anyone else see snowflakes this morning?!? Two tees have been added to the Back Forty Snowmobile Club Collection. www.backfortylifestyleco.ca

We’re so excited to have just received a handful of these insanely beautiful crib boards from @waitewoodworking they are available in the store now.

The Luke Hoodie & Tee, both unisex. These double drawstring hoodies are . Available in the store, online coming so so soon...with others. I promise. The website is showing mostly sold out of everything at the moment, that’s because I vastly underestimated how much work this t-shirt change over was on top of running the store daily. Whoops. Getting caught up slowly but surely and then the website will be updated and re-stocked. Thanks for all your support and patience, especially this last month it’s been a busy one!

New things are comin! Always behind schedule, but accidental screen exposures and printer debacles seem to be a trend this month!

This is a great reference for hikes in the Robson Valley Region if you are looking for a new place to explore! https://visitmcbride.ca/playing-h/summer-activities/hiking/

We’re on the hunt for someone ahh-mazing to join our team at Back Forty! Please visit the careers tab on our website for more details on the role and how to apply! https://backfortylifestyleco.ca/pages/careers

Hope everyone had a fantastic sunny long weekend! I decided against working on Sunday and we went out to the lake instead for some sun, wake surfing and bevvies and have zero regrets! I spent a decent part of yesterday reclaiming my screens and coating them to get ready to burn some new art and today I’m back in the store until 5! Sale update:... The t-shirt stock has dwindled down quite a bit, we still have a decent selection of men’s SM and 2XL, the MD LG and XL are getting scarce. For women’s t-shirts we have only a handful left maybe 10 in each size in various designs. The sale prices are still in effect on the website as well if you can find the size you’re after! Deliveries will be starting today for local online orders and running daily through next week. You’ll receive an email the day before yours heads out. See more

One year ago today was the first day in the pop-up store we did in Pine Centre! Time flies, what a whirlwind of a year it’s been! Thank you all so much for your amazing support of our small biz, the online orders, the in-store visits, the great conversations and for making me SO super happy to do what I do every day! Have a great long weekend!

It’s day 2 of our 50% off mens and ladies t-shirt sale! We are here until 5 pm today and 10-4 Saturday. We also just got in some new goodies for our four legged adventure friends! The Kuma Outdoor Gear dog beds and the Walton Wood Farm Pets Don’t Stink line!

We will be closed this Tuesday & Wednesday!

Hey everyone! Here are the sale details/rules and FYI’s: Sale will start Thursday July 30th and run until enough is out of the building to make room for the new line (at least a few days there’s a lot of stock)! The sale will be online effective 12:01am Thursday and in the store during our regular hours Thursday and Friday 10-5 and Saturday 10-4. ... Our flat fee shipping/local delivery will be back in effect with this hefty discount but will only be set at $5. In the interest of social distancing and sanitizing, if you know your sizes please consider taking advantage of ordering online. We will only have 6 guests in the store (+us) at a time. If you need to wait at any time to get in, please bear with us. The t-shirts specifically, will be spaced differently throughout the store these days to allow for space between guests. Please practice the recommended distancing both in and outside of the store. Due to the traffic flow that will be through the store, sanitizer (ours or yours) upon entry and before touchy touchy is super muchly appreciated! There will be some limited edition colors of certain designs in this clear out because I have some stock to use up! I’ll be making every effort to also get those on the website. Shirt prices will be automatically reduced 50% on the website at checkout. There will be no holds, this is a FCFS sale. All shirts will be final sale, no exchanges or refunds will be accepted on sale items as these shirts will no longer be stocked. We are a tiny little crew and will not be able to reply to messages inquiring about whether there are certain designs and sizes left throughout the sale, please don’t be offended if you inquire and don’t hear back, at this time we just don’t have enough hands to manage that simultaneously. We will be closed Tuesday July 28 and probably Wednesday July 29, because there’s still a TON of work to do screen printing and prepping the sale items and moving onto the new stock, etc., etc.. I think that about covers it! Happy Friday!

We’ve got a sale coming up! A BIG blowout all the t-shirts sale! There will be a ton of things going on over here for the next two months! First off, we are switching to a new supplier for our t-shirts and are beyond excited! Don’t worry, they are just as good as the current ones you all love (way better in our opinion ) AND LOOK at just a handful of the colors! These come in a few fabric blends, some 100% organic cotton, some 50/50 and some are made from recycled bottles (...RPET) ! We’re also going unisex in an effort to streamline and really, because when I finally found the right shirts they were unisex. The sizes will be XS-3XL and they are perfect for everyone, we’ve tested’em! After the blowout sale we will be rolling everything out on the new shirts, in batches, a few current designs and a few new ones each batch! Stay tuned for dates , this sale will be available online and in-store! Happy Friday!

We’ve got some Kuma Outdoor Gear sleeping bags now too! #mybackfortylife #livewildly #builtforthebackforty

It was a busy day today unpacking a lot of goodies so I took a break and tested out one of the Kuma Outdoor Gear Easy Big Bear Camp Cots we brought in! These are damn comfy cots! Rated for 400lbs and simple as can be set up! #mybackfortylife #livewildly #builtforthebackforty
