This relaxed-fit tee carries the easy confidence of dawn patrols and salt on your skin. The hand-dyed, heavyweight cotton feels lived-in from the first wear, and the vintage-style lettering—"I only wake up early for waves"—reads like a personal oath for surfers, beachgoers, and anyone who chases morning light. It layers under a windbreaker for foggy sessions or stands alone on warm afternoons. The soft garment-dye and tubular knit give the shirt a broken-in look that blends with sun-faded trunks and worn-in boards, while durable double-needle seams hold up through seasons of surf and travel.
