Clyde & Christopher's Adventure Aprons

Accessories – Atlanta

Clyde & Christopher is a collaboration between Wendy and Julianna, old friends, dog-lovers, world-travelers, and problem solvers. Their meticulously handcrafted, socially responsible aprons are loaded with pockets for every essential to take a walk around the block or a hike around the world. Christmas seven years ago, a handsome Australian Shepherd puppy came into Wendy’s life. During the harshest weather season in Atlanta — cold, wet, and windy — the walking regime began. When Wendy went out the door with her precious pup, something often got left behind; no poop bags, no tissues, no key to the house. Frustrated, she wondered where to get a coat with enough pockets to hold all the necessities, or, a dog-walking apron. She found that such an item did not exist and an idea was born! As time passed, Wendy would hear a friend moan about leaving behind a crucial item for a hike, trip, or excursion, and she would proclaim that she had dreamed up the perfect solution and would be producing said item in the “near future”. As fate would have it, Wendy’s friend, Julianna, returned to Atlanta after graduating from Georgetown University, primed for a new challenge. Having rescued a puppy herself, Julianna began dog walking with Wendy. While out one morning, they came upon a pop-up creperie. Starving, the two friends realized that neither had any money to satisfy their craving. As they walked home (bellies grumbling), Wendy shared with Julianna her dog walking apron idea. Upon hearing the concept, Julianna insisted that product development begin. Two fulfilling years have come and gone since that fateful walk. During that time, they have a built a partnership while having the time of their lives. Wendy and Julianna believe that there are many paths to adventure – some anticipated, some unforeseen. Their latest adventure has been building a business based on a foundation of friendship. Through all of the foolish mistakes and hard won successes, their friendship is stronger than ever. Clyde & Christopher hope this amazing apron accompanies you on your next adventure.
