Sometimes good things can emerge from difficult times.

This was the case for longtime resident Susie Gay who launched off her mountain bike on Aug. 24, 2022, breaking her shoulder in eight places.

With so many breaks, Gay was told by doctors that movement could cause displacement. The 38 days that followed were spent in stillness.

91裸聊视频淚t was a 91裸聊视频榖reak91裸聊视频� in so many ways. While the recovery was challenging, it presented the gift of time. A break from work and the busyness of life, to dream and start bringing our vision to reality,91裸聊视频� said Gay.

It was this stillness that was the catalyst to fulfilling a dream Susie and her husband Bryan Gay had had for years: a conscious and connected type of store, with an equal emphasis on men91裸聊视频檚 wear.

Located at 285 Westminster Ave. W., Slow Current is now open, offering clothing and accessories with a focus on sustainability, Canadian brands, and ethical manufacturing in downtown Penticton.

From these 38 days of stillness came close to the same number of brands that are now featured at Slow Current.

Some brands support women91裸聊视频檚 freedom from human trafficking, slavery, and poverty through a self-sustaining job. Some help farmers to regenerate their fields to organic practices. Some brands make swimwear from recycled ocean plastic waste. Some help give people access to clean water (22,636 people and counting).

With brand names like Made For the People, Frank and Oak and Active Humans, there is a connection to each clothing piece.

Slow Current is at 285 Westminster Ave. W., (across from Pizzeria Tratto).
