Please look at our webpage www.halfpintpdx.com to get a sense of our store's aesthetic. We are looking for a new logo symbol together with the existing lettering as is (we are adding "Leather" to the end of HalfPint, so it should be in the same font. The logo should represent what we sell: vintage leather boots/bags.

We are looking for something perhaps incorporating a Western boot and a vintage leather Purse. We don't want to give the impression that we are solely selling western wear, or that it is only a women's boutique. We could even have a belt...some sort of visual in a vintage/boho style that reflects the items we sell. Check out our website for ideas, as we have lots of photos from our Instagram feed right on the homepage.
