Slowtide partnered with the Surfrider Foundation to create two limited edition towels in support of Surfrider initiatives.
In collaboration with artist, The Los Angeles River, the Drilling is Killing Woven Towel supports the opposition to the federal administration’s recent authorization of five companies to conduct seismic blasting, the first step to offshore oil drilling, in the South and Mid-Atlantic. This drastic proposal puts our nation’s coastal economies, communities, beaches, surf breaks and marine ecosystems at risk of major oil spill disasters and ongoing offshore drilling impacts.
The USOA Woven Towel uses the Surfrider logo design for the United States and Oceans of America initiative and the fight to free our ocean and coasts. Clean water and healthy beaches are increasingly threatened by plastic and ocean pollution, offshore oil drilling, rollbacks to federal protections, development, and rising tides. We each have a stake in taking action to ensure the places where we surf, swim, play and live are protected for this and future generations. Together, we are the United States and Oceans of America.
