About Stag & Stow Co.
Built with Grit. Guided by Purpose.
Stag & Stow Co. is a veteran-owned lifestyle brand and digital publication based in Miami, Florida.
We live at the intersection of travel, craftsmanship, and storytelling—documenting real experiences, testing gear in the field, and building original worlds and series that all orbit the same idea:
A good life is made on purpose, not by accident.
What We Do
Field Reports & City Escapes
We go where the stories are—cafés at first light, bars after service, small neighborhood spots, long-weekend getaways. You’ll find city guides, food and drink recon, and cultural deep dives designed to help you move through a place with intention, not as a tourist on rails.
Gear & Hosting Guides
From everyday carry to travel bags to hosting tools, we only feature gear that’s actually been used, abused, and lived with. If it doesn’t hold up in the field or add real value to a night with friends, it doesn’t make the cut.
Bendito Hustle
Bendito Hustle is our grounded storytelling series about the grind, grace, and hustle of people building something real—businesses, creative work, lives worth defending—in Miami and beyond. It’s conversations, portraits, and short pieces that honor the work behind the highlight reel.
The World of Founder
Founder is an original dark fantasy world in development across film, fiction, and future media—a mountainous, coastal, ancient world carved open by five supernatural “wounds,” haunted by demons, ruins, and old faith. At the center is a marked wanderer called Founder, a living scar trying to keep the world from tearing itself apart.
You’ll see this world unfold on Stag & Stow through chapters, scripts, concept pieces, and visual experiments that sit alongside our real-world recon.
Stag & Stow Co. Merchandise
Our apparel and accessories are built to reflect the life we write about: simple, durable, and intentional. Every piece is designed by us and produced on-demand by our fulfillment partner to reduce waste and avoid piles of unsold inventory.
How We Work
Veteran-owned, values-driven
Stag & Stow is shaped by military service—discipline, loyalty, and an intolerance for fluff. We don’t publish what we don’t believe, and we don’t recommend what we wouldn’t use ourselves.
Real over curated
We care more about how a place feels at 7 a.m. or after a 12-hour day than how it looks in a staged photo. Our stories are built from notes, conversations, and time on the ground.
Independent and transparent
We earn revenue through affiliate links, merch, and select partnerships. When something is hosted, sponsored, or part of a collaboration, we’ll say so. The recommendation still has to stand on its own.
Honoring Those Who Serve
Stag & Stow exists because of what service to this country gave and cost—time, stories, and people we don’t forget.
We use this platform to honor service members and veterans by:
Telling stories that treat their experiences with weight and respect
Supporting veteran-owned businesses and creators
Creating space to remember names, not just dates
As this grows, you’ll see dedicated features and an Honor Roll space that keeps that commitment visible, not implied.
