Shopping in Canyon

Campus Collection outfits dorm rooms, man caves, and unmarked vans with spirit-boosting gifts and apparel from the University of Texas, Texas A&M, Baylor, and other regional colleges. The shop’s walls and shelves overflow with logoed tees, jackets, and jerseys. It also adorns homes in alma mater memorabilia with team trash cans, wall clings, decorative street signs, LED scoreboard clocks, and seasonal items such as logo-emblazoned pumpkins.

Georgia Street Mall's friendly shopkeepers stock shelves full of the little lagniappes that brighten a day, from funky decor and fashion to jeweled sandals and accessories. The immense inventory unfurls across nearly every surface of the 16,000-square-foot shop, where orange, lime-green, and yellow walls surround items from brands such as Yellow Box Shoes and Circle E Candles. In addition to their own physiques, shoppers can outfit living rooms, bedrooms, and panic rooms with pieces from a rotating array of housewares, such as picture frames, wall hangings, and pillows.

Plumes of aromatic smoke waft through Good Karma Cigar’s 4,000-square-foot storefront and lounge, where hand-rolled stogies await the jaws of cigar cutters within wrappers and wooden boxes. Aficionados on staff curate and update the fragrant selection with boutique cigars by brands such as Viaje, Illusione, Curivari, and El Triunfador. Specialty cigars recline in humidors, including Dos Capas by Montana Azul, folded by artisanal rollers who apprentice for years by wrapping mummies. Others, such as the Jesus Fuego, prioritize the smooth flavor admired by connoisseurs, carefully monitoring quality by culling tobacco leaves grown specifically for the brand. After navigating shelves of cigars, humidors, and cutters, shoppers can kick back, sample their purchase, and summon the ghost of George Burns in a smoking lounge.

Handmade wares and high-quality gifts and apparel from more than 50 vendors and craftspeople line Appleseed Junction’s shelves, walls, and racks.

Grateful shopping bags cradle knit caps, hand-painted artwork, and other eye-catching gifts as they head toward new jobs warming homes or mediating peace talks between family pets.
