Checkers Fin by Holstee. The cowboy-inspired design keeps your neck warm on those breezy days without the weight of a scarf. When it warms up throw it around your wrist, on your head or any other creative way. (Our little Ella loves to wear hers on her head.)
I very much love my Holstee fin and wear it all the time. It’s the perfect bit of warmth when it gets a bit too cold in my school’s studio. Yes I know, this sounds like a paid advertisement or something, but it’s true. Go get one.

Love Holstee! They’re good friends of ours at Carrot Creative, even doing a photoshoot for their spring line in our office. You can see some of the pictures here: http://bit.ly/aOcmdQ

grrr, once again I go to buy something that I’ve seen and like on Swiss Miss, only to find the company/website do not deliver to the UK :(

Hi Jane!
As far as I know, they ship globally. Drop them an email [email protected] if you’re having trouble on the website. ;-)

I’ll gladly support fashion when the materials are recycled and made in the US. Love it. Looking forward to the arrival of my new Holstee!

I bought 2 shirts and the fin from Holstee, and I have to say that after only 4 washings, the quality of the shirts deteriorated – prints faded in color, and shirts became looser, ‘thinner’. The fin is useful, but quality of it is also terrible after only a few washings. I want my money back since I paid so much for these expensive shirts and fins. There are other better brands out there besides this one – so I’m looking elsewhere when I’m buying eco-friendly t-shirts in the future. Don’t buy Holstee, save yourself the hard-earned money also, period.

Hi Picastr, just as I responded to you on several other blogs, were you pasted the same comment…
I am really sorry to hear you didn’t have a good experience with your purchases from Holstee, I can assure you this experience is not the norm.
When it comes to customer satisfaction, we have one motto; If our products don’t make your life better, we are not doing our job.
We have never experienced such a quality issue with our fins or shirts, and would like to get to the bottom of this. I would like send you a prepaid envelope to return the items for quality inspection, and regardless of our findings I would like to replace, and at your option refund your entire purchase.
I have looked backed at previous purchases and cannot track your username.
Please send me an email at [email protected] or call my mobile phone directly at 228.222.2845. There are enough stresses in life, and buying sustainable products shouldn’t be one of them – sorry for your unfortunate experience, we will get to the bottom of it.
Thanks,
Dave
Co-Founder, Holstee

I really love your website.. Excellent colors & theme.
Did you build this amazing site yourself? Please reply back as I’m wanting to create my very own site and would like to find out where you got this from or just what the theme is called.
Thanks!
