Celebrating 30 years with 30 products

March 07, 2018

This year, it’s our 30th birthday! Seriously, where does the time go? From way back in 1988 to now, it sure has been a great journey.

Celebrating 30 years with 30 products

It all began in 1988 with two guys enjoying life on the slopes in the French Alps and desperately trying to avoid working for a living. With money running out, they hatched plan; print some t-shirts, sell them at night, and ski during the day. When summer rolled around, they jumped on a plane to Australia - swapping the slopes for the beach - and sold some more…

So we got thinking about how we should celebrate our 30th year, and what better way than by digging out our favourite pieces from the past 30 years and bringing them back for you to enjoy all over again? Some are out now and some are coming later in the year, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled because we'll be updating you on our top 30 iconic pieces as and when they arrive. But check out some of our top picks which are out right now….

The Airlie Sweat

The original and the best! A favourite of yours for nearly 20 years and in tough, hard-wearing pique cotton, the FatFace Airlie is produced using industrial strength sewing machines. Only a few factories in the world can make it.

The Cassie Cami

After many hours of considered design, we knew we were onto a good thing the moment we laid eyes on the very first samples of the Cassie Cami. Today, it’s got button detailing on the chest and flattering, softly curved hems.

The Heritage Check Shirt

Designed in house, our checks are often inspired by vintage shirts found in vintage shops across the world. All of our shirts are specially washed to make them feel soft and give them that lived-in and loved look.

The Classic Breton Tee

We don’t think there’s a wardrobe out there that doesn’t have a Breton tee. It’s such a staple and it honestly looks great with anything. We’ve updated this year’s style with supersoft organic cotton, so it’s now even better than ever before.

The Denim Shorts

Ah, the good old denim shorts. Where would we be without them? Packed with classic features and in loads of great washes (pick your favourite), they’ve been our trusted staple for many years —and we predict for many more to come…

The Leather Tote

When we started work on our leather tote, we wanted to create a bag that looked great, felt great, but had enough space for everything you needed — and more… Made from supersoft, supple leather, this bag is designed to last and last.
