I recently mentioned bespoke surfboard maker Swami's and the company was kind enough to send me a t-shirt, which I've been getting a lot of wear out of ever since. As with all reviews, I like to use the product for a while before making any pronouncements and with this shirt I like what I've found so far.
Swami's pride themselves on making products that are limited and environmentally responsible and their clothing is no exception, with this t-shirt being 100% cotton, printed with water-based screen inks, produced to eco standards Oekotex100 & REACH and free from any harmful substances to either humans or the planet.
Aside from the eco-credentials, the shirt itself is lightweight and the material is super smooth, yet it has proven to be durable so far - two skateboard spills and a hit-and-run while riding my bike and not a mark. The attention to detail is also something that sets this brand apart from other surf companies, from the initials of the potential owners being carved into surfboards to the trimmings on the shirts. The design is minimal - just as I like it - and the overall look is very cool.
I'm a fan.
