A tree care professional climbs like a monkey and cuts wood like a beaver. Arborist August Hunicke, who has a natural aptitude for supremely skilled, dangerous work up in the treetops, puts it like this for his Monkey Beaver™ brand:
August and colleague Joe Boyd pooled their ideas with New Tribe’s designer Casey Jones to create the sensational New Tribe/Monkey Beaver™ saddle. We are proud to label this saddle with distinctive patches on the leg pads, with August’s Monkey Beaver “Dude” and a new take on the New Tribe logo.
If, like August and Joe, you were Made for This™ then our new saddle was “Made for YOU.”
