A PERFECT SHIRT
IS HARD TO COME BY.

The day after my girlfriend threw away my
favorite shirt I started working on
Marine Layer...

Since then we’ve made all this stuff behind
me. Ignore the awkward smile, focus on the
shirts.

It took me over a year to make the first shirt, so I convinced my best friend Adam to help me out.

Once we got these lovely ladies, Xiao Ling and Fei, to help us with the cut and sew we were off and running.

We opened up our first store about a year later and then bought this old bus to move our shirts from Xiao’s to the store. Since then we’ve gotten a bunch of friends to quit their real jobs and help us make some more shirts and open up a few more stores in some places we like to visit. Except for Burlingame. We opened a shop there and closed that shit down fast. In fact the only good thing about that store was the opening party we had at Shabu Shabu. I think I’m getting off track here though. Stop by one of the good stores some time and say hello.

And buy some shirts please.
