Wild & Open water swimming clothing

We’ve been working hard to add additional swim-related clothing to our collection over the past 6 months. We’ve added :

Wild swimming t-shirt, with the logo ‘Wild Swimmer 365’. It’s a celebration of the all year round swimmer. With large swimming logo on the back and a smaller logo on the left, breast pocket.

A large selection of ‘Wetsuits are for Wimps’ t-shirts…one of our most popular t-shirt logos. This swimming themed t-shirt comes in a number of sizes and colours. We’ve also recently added a hoodie to the collection.

A very recent addition is the ‘Wetsuits are for Wimps’ nightie. We mistakenly added the logo to a number of men’s vests! They are however, perfect as evening wear (nightie) and 100% organic cotton.

In the men’s ranges we have the ‘Real Athletes have Beards’ logo, on a 100% organic cotton, dark grey t-shirt. In addition, we’ve design a new ‘Powered by old man strength’ logo to put on a series of t-shirts. Watch this space.

Products designed for open water swimmers

Tom from the Sea Swim Cornwall team is very imaginative and has a background in photography and some graphic design. Over the early stages of 2020 he put these talents to good use and set about creating an open water swimming / wild swimming online shop. Most of the products we’ve produced have either been designed by Tom or sketched out….for a ‘proper’ professional to draw up for us.

We’ve tried our very best to create and design products that either didn’t exist or we’ve taken every day products and given them a swimming-twist.

From tote bags to pin badges, woolly hats (for you crazy winter swimmers!) to Calendars and car stickers. We’ve also done our research and sourced fantastic local products that we hope to post out far-and-wide.

The majority of our products are made locally (in Cornwall). Our products are as environmentally friendly as possible and if they’re not, we’re currently looking into alternatives. We’re also very proud of our packaging! In 10 months of trading the only packaging that we’ve purchased is brown paper. We sourced a shed load of old packaging from an old man that lives a few miles down the road at the start of the year and we re-use all of the packaging that we receive from our suppliers. It doesn’t always look entirely polishing when packaged up but….well, we don’t care! For the 2 minutes that the package will be seen we simply don’t think it’s worth the environmental impact.

SHOP 'TIL YOU DROP!

With the recent addition of a load of stock, we’d like to officially open our online shop. With all of the products and parts sourced from UK-based companies and one of them made in Cornwall! We’ve designed a whole range of products for open water swimmers. We’ll give you a brief rundown and then we’ll leave a series of images below and supply you with a direct link : CLICK HERE FOR SHOP

Our online shop & new products

Tom & Jo (team Sea Swim Cornwall) have been looking to add to the online shop on the website for a number of months. Although we’re obviously very disappointed in number of the events and holidays we’ve had to cancel the lock down situation we find ourselves in has presented us with the opportunity and the time to do this. A few days ago we added our own brand of resistance cords to the shop and are looking forward to introducing a range of pin badges, tote bags, pocket mirrors and a number of other products to add to our greeting card range. All of our products are inspired by open water swimming and feature elements and characteristics of both open water swimming and the type of people that partake and are dedicated to swimming in the sea, rivers and lakes across the country.

In addition to the products we’ve also added instructional videos - particularly around the use of the resistance cords.
