In 2020, we started Baykin to put a creative spin on the surf-apparel industry. Inspired by the drive, the adventure, and the experience of everyday life.
Right off the bat we began this journey with a mindset of ensuring our customers are the biggest focus, not our pockets. To do so we knew we had to provide apparel that is comfortable, functional, and unique.
We wanted to set apart from the disastrous standards of the apparel industry. Focusing on Eco-Friendly processes, donating back to our waterways, and keeping the creation of our products here in the country we are based out of; the USA.
It was also very important to us to give our customers a sense of inclusion and a say in our products. That is why introduced a theme-voted process for some of our product drops. Where a gathering of votes decides on the next products theme, and we will get down to work and provide you with a product we are certain you’ll like.
we create our apparel to be unique to our dream and to inspire all of our kin members to do the same

Hey guys - I have a few of Baykin's shirts and get compliments on them all the time. The quality and design are top-notch. Looking forward to the next designs! 10/10 highly recommend.

The seaside tank is the perfect tank for the gym, if I could wear it everyday I would. The lightness of the material can't be matched. I highly recommend the tank and every other product they have available, you won't regret it.

Baykin really know what they are doing when it comes to comfortable apparel and unique designs! I love that they not only let their customers vote on the next design but that they also donate a portion of their profit to helping clean up the waterways. Can not wait to see what they will design next!
Hannah Jones
My favorite type of shirts now! The long sleeve gets so many compliments and the short sleeves really squeeze my body without being too tight!
These are the types of shirts that I buy two of the same kind because I like the quality and the comfort. Definitely recommend!!

Baykin is incredible - not only is their clothing design and fitting top tier, they also stand for a cause they truly believe in. It's such a great feeling knowing the money I spend there is going towards a worthy cause. It also helps that their marketing + designs are UNREAL.
Nobody else is doing what they're doing!
Hannah Butterfield
Excellent quality apparel for reasonable price. Customer service is great and will definitely purchase again.
