After over 20 years of battling, fussing, band-aiding and otherwise cussing his way around the country, our founder, outdoor sales rep Lance Meller, started working on a storage solution that would let him get his job done faster so he could play more. Sleeping in the back of his truck spooning with snowboard samples, skis, tools and just about everything but a warm woman, Lance started working with some pals building wooden boxes to bring an end to his pickup bed junk show. Then a few million things fell into place, including a BLT with Jake, and after nearly three years of intensive design and engineering work DECKED took on an entirely more significant level of perfection. Lance still claims to personally be slightly less than perfect.
