Mike's Summer Muses



1. I came across AFROSURF a few years ago, and have been drawing inspiration from the pages of rich African surf and street culture. Ghana has an incredible surf scene, and through the book, I got connected to the Sankofa Surf Club—a nonprofit that offers surf training for young athletes in a rural town, as well as supporting their school fees and giving them the opportunity to travel for surf competitions. I’m honored to be working with the club as a team sponsor, and we have designed their surf uniforms and created a collection which the proceeds support the club.


2. I’ve always been drawn to the surf paintings of legendary artist and musician, Raymond Pettibon.


3. Cabana Towel Terry in Neapolitan ice cream shades.


4. Watermelon Juice: this is gonna be the Summer of hydration.

 


5. My family and I look forward to our trip to Biarritz every year. This magical town, situated in the foothills of the Pyrenees Mountains, between Spain and France.
