At Topo Designs and TAXA Outdoors, we collectively believe in modern utility, inclusivity, and sustainability. We build products that enable you to continuously redefine what the outdoors means to you. Ones that encourage you to expand your rhythms of life and soak up all the outside has to offer while working flawlessly and keeping your footprints small. Whether taking a ride through town or heading out to the remote wilderness, we’re here to inspire you to experience the outdoors the way you want.
Our series starts by introducing Caziah Franklin from Nashville, TN; a musician, writer, photojournalist, and player in the outdoors.
Caziah’s grandfather inspired him to explore, telling him at an early age “This place is for us and we just have to break the hinges of fear and systemic issues. These places are available for us and we have the right and privilege to be here.” Caziah’s childhood didn’t have illustrations of the black community within the outdoor community. He wants to be that illustration for the next generation. A big fan of the micro-adventure, he states, "An immersive outdoors that welcomes all: whether that is a short day hike/walk around the block, or a more intense experience of climbing a mountain or participating in extreme sports. Don’t be afraid to immerse yourself in things you don’t understand. Allow yourself to be uncomfortable, break the fear.”
