HEAD OF RETAIL
LIFESTYLE LABEL | BYRON BAY
-
Born from the creative energy of the Aussie surf and music scene, this Byron Bay founded streetwear label has grown from humble grassroots beginnings into a globally recognised brand with a devoted following across Australia, the US, Japan, Europe and beyond. Known for its grunge-edged, eco-conscious aesthetic and a genuine commitment to sustainable materials and ethical production, the brand has built a reputation for doing things differently — and doing them well. With a growing bricks and mortar presence across some of Australia's most iconic locations and an international wholesale footprint that continues to expand, this is a brand that has earned its place on the global stage without ever losing its soul. The culture is creative, values-driven and deeply connected to the community it was born from.
