In 1972 Ireland hosted the European surfing championships for the first time. While the completion conditions were not ideal, the surfari which followed has gone down in history as one of the most fun road trips of all time where some of Ireland’s top surfing locations were discovered by the group of teams as they made their way from Co. Clare to Co. Donegal.
Ireland has several pods of orcas moving from the Southwest of Ireland to Scotland and all around our coast. This linocut illustration is a simple one colour print introducing one of the mammals you may see while in Irish waters.
This tee is our homage to Johnny Kilbane -
John Patrick "Johnny" Kilbane (April 9, 1889 – May 31, 1957) was a featherweight boxer in the early part of the 20th century. He held the World Featherweight title from 1912 to 1923.
He was born in 1889 in ‘The Angle’, a teeming Westside emigrant stronghold which was tough and impoverished, to an Achill father and Cleveland-Achill mother, Mary Gallagher.
In 1922 Kilbane visited Achill island in Co. Mayo where he shed a tear to see the birthplace of his father.

Our heritage "Kavanagh" tee draws from the old motorcycle advertisements found in newspapers all around Ireland in the 1920's and 30's.

We love Dublin and this is design shows the Poolbeg chimneys, the Sugar Loaf and Dublin Mountains horizon. The red and white towers are the first thing you see when you fly home and you can see them from both sides of the city. This is the view we see from the Bull Wall, with the towers reflecting in Dublin Bay.
