Sea Threads Mission
Founder Dylan of Sea Threads shared the journey behind these shirts. While working as a kayak guide and studying marine biology, Dylan noticed plastic pollution overwhelming coastlines, particularly in Southeast Asia. Seeing the harm firsthand, he asked a critical question: Why not transform ocean plastic into sustainable clothing?
The Process: From Pollution to Product
Sea Threads partners with teams in Indonesia, where plastic is collected from beaches and shorelines. Workers are paid fair wages to gather and sort debris, which is then:
Cleaned and broken into chips
Melted and spun into fibers
Woven into high-quality garments
The result? A versatile, soft sun shirt that’s functional and durable, perfect for both on and off the water.
At just $39.99, these shirts offer affordable sustainability without compromising on comfort.
Making a Difference, One Shirt at a Time
As Dylan highlights, the impact extends beyond clean beaches. With 80% of ocean plastic originating from areas with limited waste management systems, initiatives like Sea Threads turn a global crisis into opportunity—while inspiring consumers to make mindful choices.
Already a hit in Napa, our customers love the look, feel, and eco-conscious mission. Dylan’s vision for Sea Threads proves that innovation and sustainability can go hand in hand.
