About
Why walk the extra block uphill to shop at The Ruddy Duck?
1. To be in a big old (1893) two story house with great natural light and views of windsurfers and kiters on the Columbia River.
2. The house is miraculously full of the best and most affordable mens’, womens’, childrens’, shoes and clothing. Hood River boasts a thriving downtown shopping district. People walking everywhere and the local pedestrians are shockingly fit, which tells the story of the Hood River lifestyle. A lifestyle demanding edgy fashion, technical function and uncompromising comfort.
3. To support a local, family owned; family run small business that, in turn, supports the town of Hood River with great jobs and endless donations for local fundraising events.
4. To luxuriate on the lawn out front, enjoying shakes and scoops from next door at Mike’s Ice Cream, serving Prince Puckler’s for 26 years!
