Summer fun


Browsing in a surf shop while on holidays at the seaside I came across this organic cotton tee made by Billabong. I like the print, and the button detail on the sleeves and I love that it is organic. The tees are part of Billabong's Design for Humanity where they also make board shorts out of recycled plastic bottles. They have organic tees and recycled boardies for guys and girls. Billabong make heaps of stuff, it is a good start, but would be great to see more organic cotton stuff.
