Every hat restores 10 sq ft of Giant Kelp
California's Kelp forests have been disappearing - rapidly. Every Help California's Kelp hat sold fund the restoration of 10 sq ft of giant kelp of the coast of Palos Verdes with our project partner - The Bay Foundation.
Hats destined for the landfill were donated by a major Californian surf brand. Old patches removed and new patches made.
Working with surf-art curator Charles Adler, we partnered with San Clemente, CA artist Britt Tobia to create the hat's art.
Help California's Kelp patch and internal branding stitched by the crew from Slightly Choppy in Newport Beach, CA
We took a trip to the Palos Verdes kelp reforestation project with our partners, The Bay Foundation - a world-class ecosystem restoration project, right outside Los Angeles. Seeing is believing - and yes, we also saw whales.
