The Story
Slavey's (named after owner Slavey Werry)
Series I: Historic Ketchum T-Shirts by Independent Goods
Ketchum, Idaho
1952-1980
Ketchum was officially founded in 1880. As any town in America, it has transformed itself over the decades, once the largest sheep ranching area in the USA, now a beloved ski & summer recreation area. Located on the corner of Sun Valley & Main Street where The Warfield now stands. It was the kind of place where dancing on the tables was encouraged and icons from Bing Crosby to the Steve Miller Band were known to hang out. If you meet a longtime local ask them to tell you their favorite Slavey’s story - almost everyone has one. The T-shirts are a celebration of the history and memories of yesteryear, with the hope that the history is preserved.
