If you have ever floated over a reef and watched a honu glide past, you know the feeling. It is going somewhere, and it will get there, but nothing about the way it moves says it has ever checked a clock. We built the Sea Turtle Paradise Shop around that feeling, so you can take a little of it home.
The turtle at the center of it all
Sea Turtle Paradise is the design the whole shelf is named for: a turtle drifting through coral and bright little fish, painted in the blues you remember from the water. It comes as a soft tee, a cozy sweatshirt for cool evenings and a cropped top for warm afternoons, so the same honu can come along whatever the weather is doing.
Turtles with something to say
Sea You Later waves goodbye the only way a turtle would, slowly and with no regrets at all. Zero Hurry puts a turtle on the face of a curling wave with a flower lei around its neck, which is exactly how we would like to spend a Tuesday. Island Style shows one riding a surfboard like it was born on one, and Turtle Escape Plan parks a honu between two beach chairs just as the sun goes down. Small Repair is our favorite for anyone who has ever started a little project and ended up with a patchwork masterpiece.
Why the turtle, and why now
Most of us know the other pace too well: the inbox, the calendar, lunch eaten standing up. These shirts are a gentle reminder that the slow version of you is still in there. Wear one on the ferry, at the farmers market or on the couch with a good book, and let it do the talking.
Every design is printed when you order it, on fabric that stays soft wash after wash. Pick the turtle that feels like you and take your time about it. The honu would want it that way.
