What Is Vitamin Sea? What is Vitamin Sea? First and foremost, Vitamin Sea is a clothing brand. It was created as a final assignment, by creator (and my sister), Kitty Tindall. It is a surf brand, that makes surf clothes, but it is not exclusively worn by surfers. In fact, we here at Vitamin Sea love seeing people from, all walks of life, wearing our clothes and reading our zine. A large reason for our existence is found in our strong view about the fact that, the beach and sea has an extremely positive and soothing effect on our mental health. We plan to promote this fact through our clothing.
So what’s Vitamin Sea Zine Edition?, well this is the latest platform that we are exploiting to the maximum to promote our clothes. All kidding aside, this is a simply a publication based upon Vitamin Sea clothing. But, this is where we differ, because ‘Vitamin Sea: Zine Edition’ actively shies away from labels, as the last thing we want to is slow down or prohibit our progress and success, by shoehorning ourselves in to one particular category or idea.
Vitamin Sea: In the Wild
A large part of our Vitamin Sea identity is promoting the positive and relaxing effect the sea has on our mental health. We here at Vitamin Sea believe there is no better sea-based activity than surfing, so over the next few pages you will see several different surf-orientated photos featuring Vitamin Sea and it’s clothing products.This will also give you an insight into the Welsh surfing scene. Warning you now its not as glamorous as the Hawaiian, Californian or Australian surf scenes, instead ours is full off overcast skies and thick sea fog. But, if you ask me that’s what makes us the most passionate surfers.
