At Colorado Made our mission is to showcase the people, places, and brands that make Colorado an amazing place to live, play, and visit.
We’re focused on the outdoors and anything to do with those who want to experience it.
Gear
The state’s natural landscape is inspiring, pushing many to test their limits. It is out of those experiences that many products have been developed to meet the demands of Colorado’s outdoors. We test these products in the environments they were meant to be used in and seek to uncover the stories of the founders of these companies.
Places
No matter which border you enter the state from, you’ll encounter places unlike anywhere else in the world. To the east, the plains. To the west, mountains as far as the eyes can see. With so many places to go and so much land to cover, we want to see what we can find out there.
Lifestyle
When you’re ready to take a rest day, or recount the adventures of the afternoon, there are plenty of places and experiences for that, too. We want to show you everything Colorado has to offer and bring you into everything that rounds out the Colorado lifestyle.
Who We Are
Matt NeSmith
Originally from Florida, the call of the mountains was too strong and he moved to Colorado in early 2012. With everything he owned packed into his Subaru and his Yeti ARC strapped to the roof, he began the next chapter of his life in Denver, Colorado.
Since then he’s spent his time exploring the mountains from the saddle of his bike, hiking trails on the front range and beyond, and skiing downhill or cross country when the snow makes a visit.
