“Boston is an active, outdoor market that we’re excited to now be a part of,” explains Brad Hiranaga, Chief Brand Officer at Cotopaxi. “Boston is a gateway to some unique recreational opportunities in the northeast, and with 64 colleges and universities in the Boston area, this market provides a great opportunity for us to connect with the next generation of outdoor enthusiasts.”
Located in the heart of Newbury Street, Cotopaxi’s new store was originally a 19-century schoolhouse prior to retail. “Our focus was to keep the existing floor layout and finishes, maintaining an open concept,” said Matt Kempf, lead architect from BRR Architecture. “Our team enjoyed working with Cotopaxi to incorporate their branding throughout the store design while maintaining the unique characteristics of the building and neighborhood.”
