The dad who owns fifteen surf tees and exactly one shirt, which he wears to weddings and funerals alike

What it is

Critical Slide lightweight cotton-linen blend short sleeve shirt with resort collar and coconut buttons. Sizes S to XXL. Designed and tested in Bondi, Australia.

Why we picked it

A cotton-linen resort collar with coconut buttons is the rare shirt that works over boardshorts at lunch and with jeans at dinner, which is precisely the hole in most surfing dads’ wardrobes. It is designed and tested in Bondi rather than merely styled to look as though it was.

One reading so far. We record every change from here, so a sale price later in the year can be measured against this one rather than against whatever a retailer says it used to cost. Why that matters.
