Marine Layer
A couple of years ago a new store called Marine Layer popped up in a shopping center near our home in California. I had been by it a few times, but never went in or thought much about it. Then one day a friend mentioned that it’s a new favorite of her teen son’s. (Buying clothes for picking teens is something my friend and I have in common.) Trusting her recommendation I decided it was time to go check it out.
As soon as I walked in I thought to myself that these have got to be some of the softest tees I’ve EVER seen. I purchased a gift card and was on my way. Then the other day, as I was thinking about what I would pack for myself for our upcoming trip to Asia, it occurred to me that soft, loose cotton may be just what I need and that Marine Layer lightbulb went on in my head.
These are some of my favorites of theirs right now for easy light packing for my travel light obsession! If you haven’t heard of Marine Layer, go take a look. Who could resist their incredibly soft cottons? And with a business model that starts like this, need I say more…
The day after my girlfriend threw away my
favorite shirt I started working on Marine Layer…
