drift, perspectives in surfing

This weekend, Wellen is throwing a pop-up shop event and will be slingin’ its fresh holiday line as well as some remaining items from previous collections and a few Wellen surfboards. They are setting it up on N. Vermont Ave in Los Feliz. The opening reception will be tomorrow night from 8-11 pm and the store will be open the rest of the weekend from 12-8. If you live in the LA area, head down and check out what these guys are up to.

Wellen is a DIY operation, with CEO Matt Jung printing most of the shirts himself. Their backbone is in shaping, but their apparel has been expanding with each season. For this one they added some cut-and-sew flannels to their collection of light and surfy artist-drawn tees.

Don’t live near LA? Can’t make it to the shop? Don’t worry, Drift can hook you up with some sweet Wellen Gear. Send your name, shirt size, and address to contest@driftsurfing.com and we will enter your name in a drawing to win these two items from the holiday line: a Jellyfish tee designed by artist and Wellen friend Hannah K. Lee and the newly added flannel.  You’ll also be added to the Wellen mailing list to receive all their latest news.

We’re psyched on this small California brand. Be on the look out for more Drift/Wellen collaborations in the near future.

(note:  if you do not want to be added to the Wellen mailing list, please specify in your entry.)
