About Us
- Founded in 2009 by Mike Natenshon, Marine Layer was born from the desire to create the perfect t-shirt – one that was unbelievably soft and comfortable. - The company achieved this by developing unique custom-spun fabrics, primarily using a blend of recycled beechwood fibers (TENCEL™ Modal) and recycled plastic bottles, establishing a commitment to sustainability from its inception. - Beyond comfort, Marine Layer is dedicated to circularity through initiatives like their 'Re-Spun' program, which takes old t-shirts (any brand) and recycles them into new yarn, fostering a closed-loop system for textile waste. - Their product range has expanded to include a wide array of casual apparel, from tees and shirts to hoodies, dresses, and accessories, all embodying their core values of softness, quality, and environmental responsibility.
Mission
While Marine Layer does not publicly state a singular, formal mission statement, its brand ethos and operational focus clearly convey its core purpose: to create the world's softest, most comfortable, and sustainably made apparel, enabling a relaxed lifestyle while continuously working to minimize environmental impact and promote circularity in fashion.
