The name Chepita is drawn from a Native Indian woman who was the wife of Chief Ouray, the leader of the seven Ute Indian tribes prominent in the Colorado region. Chepita was very influential in her time by being one of the first Indians and one of the first women to address Congress. Chepita, the store, tries to reflect her spirit with progressive attitudes for people who like something different and new.
