POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
A full year in the making...

This piece is a tribute to this special place — the land, the water, and all the layers of life it holds. The project was inspired by and gives a nod to the spirit of “Aloha,” a philosophy of kindness, compassion, and respect that moved us as we built this collection, even as this shirt’s heart and story belong here, to Sleeping Bear Dunes.

A massive thank you to @nateknoth for his devotion to this project and the gift of his illustration, and to our partners in Marquette who brought it to life alongside us through months of fabric testing, and fit development. A whole lot of love went into this one — we hope you feel it too. 🩵

🌊’In Waves’ Out Now - Watch the Full Film at the Link in Bio 🌊

It is such an incredible honor to be here 20 years on. 

We are so grateful for this community, for these Great Lakes, and for the bold steps our Mama took to bring a joyous vision to life: a surf shop, in a village, in the heart of the Lakes- all those years ago.

When you choose community over convenience, this is what you fuel. Shopping small supports local programs, advocacy efforts, events, and real people. 

Together, we make a difference.

September sail pt. 2: Platte Bay → North Manitou → high island → Beaver Island

Conditions have been across the board, from all-time to a classic butt kicking. Good anchorages, lots of swimming, maybe a sleepless night or two.

Batteries stopped charging, but thankfully it was a blown fuse down the line from the alternator. While replacing that, we noticed a substantial leak from the impeller where an O-ring had blown out. Nothing a cardboard gasket can’t fix! Smooth sailing :)

THANK YOU for all the love on the Sleeping Bear Surf Shop videos- we had a blast bringing this vision to life and all of it was possible because of:

- @kingxpinn at the helm of creative direction, filming, and edits
- @kileparker; additional filming and edits
- Jonah Powell; audio recording
- @artbyaarondye ; slappin bass
- @lebo.mp3; drum kit and bgvs
- @rachelhaggertycreative; photos 
- @ellaskrocki ; location and set design 

And the whole @sleepingbearsurf family. 17ish years ago I met this crew and had my first surf lessons. They have continued to be some of my biggest supporters for the last almost two decades. This is a magical family + place and there’s nowhere I’d rather have brought this plan to life🌈🤘🏽🌊✨🐚 taken in Sleeping Bear Surf by @sleepingbearsurf
