Based out of the small town of Shoalhaven Heads on the NSW south coast, TEE-PEE Surf is the soul project of its founder, Tom Page. Having lived through the peak of the Australian surf industry to watching it become dull and repetitive, a spark was ignited and TEE-PEE Surf was born in 2016
With soul not seen since the golden ages of the Australian surf scene, the entire range is designed in-house with the garments all being printed by hand by Tom.
A real desire to bring back what we once had and loved, ya know?
Having always wanted to own and run a surf brand, Tom had the design ideas and skills to make it happen, just not a name for the brand. Nicknamed TEE-PEE throughout highschool, the brand name was cemented after the principle said the nickname was 'too rude' to put on a year 12 jersey.
Rebelling, Tom started selling shirts at school with majority of the teachers turning a blind eye.
Years later, you are now spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing something that will last generations and keep the cycle of nostalgia spinning with our range of tees, boardshorts and caps forever growing.
On any given week you can find us cruising up and down the coast looking for waves and setting up markets. We believe in old-school service, allowing you to see, feel and try on our products all while having a laugh. The monthly market breakdown can be found pinned on our social channels.
Gotta get back to designing and printing the next range of threads.
Homegrown + Backyard Tested.
With sustainability at the forefront of the brand, small runs of new products are released each season to cater for all lifestyles. Too much of a good thing is a bad thing, which makes each run limited and its impact on the environment minimal. Printed by hand in Shoalhaven Heads by Tom, all TEE-PEE Surf tees, hoods, long-sleeves and boardies are constructed with ethically sourced materials.
Adding to our green focus, all orders are shipped off in compostable mail bags. Making a good feed for your worms at home! We hand deliver all the local orders too, so give us a beep if you see us driving through town.
Thanks heaps for sticking 'round this long!
