Atelier

Gym Class Surfers was founded in Rockaway Beach, New York — a love of vintage, hanging with friends, and a nostalgia for the places we love most. We set out to letter those memories: the beach you grew up on, the bar on the corner, the name you still say out loud. Felt on a worn-in crew, packed from the same city that raised it.

Crew

The people we sew for are the people we grab a drink with. Same block, same bar, same beach. A Gym Class Surfers crew is a record of that — who you were with, and where you wanted to be.

Vintage bases we found, mended if they needed it, and lettered. What you see is what ships — measurements from the shoulder, chest across. Customs are designed with you, photographed for approval, then sewn, packed, and sent from the same studio.

Nostalgic Destinations

Name a beach, a school, a bar, a person. We'll sit the letters on a vintage crew and send you photos before it's yours. Felt is cut here. Packed here. Sent out from the same stretch of New York City.
