About
Who doesn't love a badass t-shirt? There’s no shortage of brands out there making them. However, it is hard to find tees that are American-made, super soft, durable, and get all the compliments. Enter Pandion Southeast, independently owned in Wilmington, NC. We're all about crafting high-quality gear that pays homage to our coastal home.
It's in the Name
"Pandion" or the osprey, is a coastal bird of prey that's also known as a seahawk. Our brand is a sly nod to our hometown, our college days, and the Cape Fear region. Ospreys can be found in their nests perched on top of channel markers as they guide boaters through our beautiful waters. They're fun to watch as they dive after fish and easily rank as some of our favorite coastal wildlife. So, naturally, we thought they'd make the perfect symbol to represent our brand.
Our Tees
We take cool tees seriously. And keeping everything American-made is no walk in the park, but for us, it's totally worth it. It’s tempting to search for cheaper materials and techniques. However, "the bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." That quote keeps us on our toes. It's what sets us apart from the other guys.
Our Approach
Pandion tees are built to last. As they age, they get comfier with every wash and wear. Plus, we use a unique printing technique with water-based ink that infuses the design right into the fabric, so you won't even feel it. This means the shirt breathes better without the feeling of a plastic decal you get from traditional screen printing.
