Poughkeepsie whhaatttt??? (Peh-kip-see) - Say hello to Upstate New York

by David Deioma July 18, 2019

About 90 miles North of Manhattan on the Eastern shore of the Hudson river, the town of Poughkeepsie (Peh-kip-see) is now a home to Mudroom Backpacks. Fleet Feet - Poughkeepsie (http://www.fleetfeetpoughkeepsie.com/) now carries Mudroom Backpacks and is the most recent running specialty retailer, as part of a growing network in 18 states around the country.

Just a quick train ride on the Ethan Allen Express, Poughkeepsie is easily accessible from Penn Station in the city. Fun facts and places in the Queen City of the Hudson include; a walkway over Hudson River, the home of Vassar College and also the Dutchess Rail Trail.

The Dutchess Rail Trail is a rail trail that stretches from the former Hopewell Junction train depot, north to the Poughkeepsie entrance of the Walkway over the Hudson. It's a shared use rail trail open for pedestrians and bicyclers.

Check out Poughkeepsie this Summer and check out Mudroom Backpacks at Fleet Feet - Poughkeepsie. The Amtrak Ethan Allen/Empire Service train takes about one hour and thirty-five minutes, and costs $27-$38 bucks. While there, the experiences are priceless. #getoutthere

Welcome to the Mudroom!

Mudroom makes backpacks designed to hold a pair of shoes separately from laptops and personal items. Mudroom backpacks are innovative because footwear compartments are patent-protected with exterior and interior access for ease of travel and stowing.

Trudging through slush, rain and snow in the Winter? No problem with a Mudroom backpack. Wear those boots while shoes are securely stowed in a Mudroom backpack. After work, work-out? No problem with a Mudroom backpack. Put those court shoes inside, separately from a laptop. Dirt and moisture from shoes is separated from clothes and electronics.

Mudroom makes travel by train, plane, bus and ride-share easy and efficient. For more information, check out the collection at:
