I grew up in Northern Michigan. The most beautiful part of the world, as far as I'm concerned. I was one of many kids. My life was fairly chaotic, as it can be in big families. But there were two consistencies in my life: my love for dogs, and my love of the water - be it an ocean, lake or stream.
Flash forward many years with a variety of life and work experiences, some successful, others we will skip over for now. I was no longer enthralled with running a plastics business. The lack of human contact and good nature had been eroding from this venture for a few years. I went to the beach with my family to try and figure out what was next.
While staring at the majestic blues of the ocean, I saw a child on a paddleboard. He was clumsily handling the board in a manner that reminded me of our youngest Labrador Retriever, Windsor. A lab on a paddleboard? The proverbial bolt of lightning hit me that this could work. Heck, yes!
Thus Harbor Boys Apparel was born. Our mission is to provide the highest quality, softest shirts and apparel that you will ever wear, while being fun and stylish to boot!
