Life Live Above All.The world changes before our eyes

with seemingly little for us to control.

Experiences in our daily lives are blended

into one inclusive unruly realm. The home,

defined as ‘the place where something

flourishes’, is a venue to look forward to

return to after a long, though ultimately

swift instant in our lives. It is a resting

place, a workspace, or a social club, and is

the one environment we have complete

control over to remain fixed while the

rest of the world changes with haste.

Miles High is founded on the notion

that the home is a sanctuary. As a

lifestyle brand dedicated to providing

the modern individual with a wardrobe

and accouterments for the home it

is conducive to a relaxing and serene

atmosphere. The importance and function

of the home can be overlooked, but Miles

High strives to solidify it’s significance.

Everything produced, including products

and initiatives, embodies the luxury of

comfort and style in conjunction with

functionality. Miles High will continue to

produce, inspired by the crafted home

environments of international cultures

past and present, to ensure home will

always remain sweet home.

Baby alpaca is a relatively unknown specialty

fiber which is very rare and of extremely high

quality. It is stronger, lighter, warmer and more

resilient than wool, and as soft as cashmere.

Baby alpaca fiber has microscopic pockets

within the fibers that trap air. These pockets

allow the garment to breathe through on

warm days, and likewise trap body heat in cold

weather.

A Mission of Altruismwe are not in this world alone, nor

is it our goal to encourage a laissez-

faire lifestyle. Miles High supports the

individuals who are contributing their

passions to society. It is our mission to

empower them, in a purchase for their

own experience, to also support others.

The sky is no longer the limit. We are

able to provide for our clients while at

the same time educating them on issues

and the organizations that are putting

the effort in to solve these problems day

after day. whether it is feeding, clothing,

educating, or donating, the greatest

donation is the time spent incorporating

innovative ways for Miles High consumers

to give opportunity, protecting our planet

and its inhabitants as if it were our home.

Current Initiatives

Miles High has launched Miles high Sessions. Its current form

is a channel hosted on SoundCloud.com that features DJs mixes

that are in the realm of meditative, calming and relaxation. sessions

plans to begin collaborating with record labels to create a series

of episodes to not only calm and inspire listeners, but to educate

them on new music genres, scenes, and artists around the globe.

Working with Boston-based non-profit, Ellen’s heart and

Soul, Miles High volunteered to curate the organization’s ‘Music

for the Heart and Soul’ Campaign. In this, Ellen’s Heart and Soul

is collecting donated iPods and MP3 players to place in cancer

treatment centers for patients to listen to relaxing music before

and after chemotherapy treatments. Miles High will be compiling

playlists and loading them onto over 400 iPods to be distributed.

Past Initiatives

water collective is a multidisciplinary organization amplifying

the impact of existing water organizations. The organization

attaches customized programs unique to every project location

to ensure a community’s ability to hold on to clean water and to

grow economically from this resource. Miles High sponsored the

water Collective’s holiday Fundraiser at the wooster

Social Club in New York City. Miles High provided music for the

evening and donated an Essential Longsleeve as a prize for

the raffle.

The cloud Forests of Ecuador are home to an incredible array of

biodiversity. However, the constant threat of logging, mining and

unsustainable agriculture is edging many of these species towards

extinction. with each purchase of a Miles high Baby Alpaca

Pull-Over, 100 sq. meters of rainforest are protected through

a donation to the Australian non-profit, Rainforest Rescue.

Miles high made a donation in January 2012 that

saved a total of 5000 sq. meters of rainforest within

the Choco-Andean Corridor.

Future Initiatives

A skateboard, music and arts event. Not yet confirmed at

Boardwalk Skatepark in Woburn, MA in July. The event will be

produced by Ellen’s Heart and Soul and Miles High, consisting of

live music performances, a skateboard competition, and unique

experiences with photography, design and art along with the Miles

High brand, raising awareness and money for Ellen’s Heart and Soul

and it’s important initiatives. Miles High plans to sponsor a ‘Rider’s

Lounge’ and provide comfortable couches and refreshments for

contestants.

Miles High will be collaborating with Boston-based toy foundry,

Guumon on multiple initiatives, including events, products and

donation drives. The event date and details are to be determined,

but will feature an art opening at Lot F in downtown Boston

January 2013. A planned toy drive will coincide with the event
