Ocean Waste to Ocean Protection: Our Journey with the Oceanic Human Rash Guard
We’re beyond excited to introduce the Oceanic Human Rash Guard—a project rooted in sustainability and a deep respect for the ocean. This release isn’t just a new product for us; it’s the result of a year and a half of dedication, research, and testing, which all started in July 2024. Our mission was clear: to create India’s most sustainable and high-quality rash guard, built to withstand the elements and help protect the environment.
The Creation of the Oceanic Human Rash Guard
Our journey began with three essential pillars: quality, protection, and sustainability. Extensive research led us to an innovative fabric made from single-use plastics, ghost nets, and other ocean waste. Each piece of this reclaimed material is cleaned, transformed, and re-engineered into high-performance polyamide yarn. This yarn rivals the strength and durability of virgin nylon but offers a fraction of the environmental impact, making it an ideal choice for eco-conscious water enthusiasts.
But we didn’t stop there. Over the past year, we tested multiple samples with divers, surfers, and swimmers to ensure our rash guard could meet any adventure head-on. We put it through rigorous tests under various conditions—different activities, washing methods, and wear patterns. After countless trials, we knew we had it: a product that maintains its shape, texture, and performance, adventure after adventure.
Why We Call it “Oceanic Human”
The name “Oceanic Human” goes beyond just a label; it’s a way of life. "Oceanic" represents everything connected to or inspired by the ocean, and by wearing this rash guard, you’re stepping into a role that aligns you with ocean conservation and care.
Each time you put on the Oceanic Human Rash Guard, you’re joining us in our mission to create a more sustainable future. It’s not just about personal protection—it’s about contributing to a cause that extends beyond the shoreline.
