We had a horrible experience. Our money was deposited in August for an order we needed by…read moreSeptember 23rd. We received mulitiple excuses as to why we didn't have our order. It took me and two others to track Shawn, the owner down. After constantly asking, we got our order at 9:30pm on the 25th, by meeting the guy in a local park in his white van. Turns out, the count was off and the shirts were done incorrectly. In addition to this, the shirts were different brands and qualities. It was such a nightmare. In fact, it was not until Thursday, October 9th that I had to drive to his house to pick up the remainder of the order. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

I've always seen many of their comical posts on Instagram, so I decided to head down to Real Surf…read moreShop in Oceanside to what it's all about. Located off the main road 101, Real Surf is an Oceanside shop that caters to all of your surfing needs. It's where you can rent your board, wetsuit, wax; the works and hit the water (which is just a couple of blocks down the road). I don't surf, but I could see that their board inventory was extensive and their customer service was knowledgeable and superfriendly. But the apple of my eye was definitely their clothing line!! Real Surf Shop has the BEST locally-themed clothing inventory in the city. I'm not talking about generic, tourist-styled designs with "Oceanside" on them. I'm talking about some very witty, comical logos and designs that are indicative & representative of life in Oceanside. If you're an Osider or city local, you NEED to get one of their shirts, tanks, hoodies or hats. Some Logos Include: "Keep Oside Real" "Localization Not Gentrification" and "Oside Takes Care of its Own" All of these should resonate with an Osider. Even more importantly, the staff is down-to-earth and truly care about their community. They give back to and are representative to the spirit of the Oceanside Community Unity. So, whether it's for your surfing needs or just to get a unique shirt that shows you love Oceanside, The Real Surf Shop is where it's at!

I like this surf shop, and the vibe it maintains as the downtown changes rapidly. Feels more like a…read morelocal spot than this touristy stuff flooding Oceanside. Prices of course as quite inflated since it's so close to the Strand. If you need essentials stay inland for your sunblock and whatever. I love the Oceanside Low Life gear. It is homage to the locals and the surfing culture. Typically representing Oside with this hat more often than not. Worth supporting the real locals!! Check it out.

Was going through some old things in storage and came upon a set of fins I bought online directly…read morefrom Watermark quite a few years ago. Just such an overall bummer with these. The front part of the left fin base covers the fin box screw so it cannot get installed properly. I guess who needs the screw right? Maybe just glue em in with resin? At the time I bought em, I was pretty stoked on the price and not having to pay an arm and leg that the big name brands typically charge (and to also support a non big brand), but shows what I know. Sent them an email regarding this issue, but never got a response so I'm stuck with these. Maybe I'll sand off that base? Anyways, hope the quality control has improved since.
