Pomona California Retro Surfer: vintage beach-inspired crest tee with surfboard graphics, palm trees, and classic west-coast styling.
The story behind this design
Black shirt anchored by an ornate vintage badge featuring 'California' curved across the top and 'Pomona' in large serif letters below it. A golden sunset sits center-top with radiating horizontal lines; two palm trees frame it on either side. The design's lower half showcases a surfboard icon flanked by wave swirls, conveying the beach lifestyle. Text reads 'Est. 1888' in smaller serif type, and 'The Golden State' curves along the bottom of the shield. The entire crest is bound by double-line detailing in metallic gold and cream, giving it the look of a vintage emblem—like old resort patches or travel memorabilia. The weathered, distressed aesthetic adds to its retro authenticity.
Who it's for
Made for west-coast lifestyle enthusiasts, surfers, beach culture lovers, and vintage design collectors. Ideal gift for someone celebrating California roots or the laid-back beach aesthetic regardless of location. Appeals to travelers, vacation home owners, or anyone drawn to retro resort wear and classic Americana beach vibes. Works for casual wear or as nostalgic memorabilia for those who lived through or romanticize classic west-coast summers.
