Land & Sea

So if you haven't figured it out already we're crazy about Florida around here and it felt like it was about time to make an official U.B.C. coat of arms and why not dedicate it to our great land that is Florida. This was a long and thought out process that took some time to finalize I think the final version was like the 9th draft but after alot of creative criticism and long sleepless nights deciding what should be included we all decided on the one featured here so just for kicks I'm going to make my best attempt to break it down for ya...

1.The surfboard: this is a template taken from one of Dobbs's most common shapes he used to do; standard shortboard with a big ol' fat rounded pin at the bottom.

2. The jelly fish: this is the same jelly from the green jelly shirt and when representing FLA waters it just seems appropriate, those things are all over the place around here.

3. The waves: yes we got waves in Florida on both sides to, if you don't believe us then good lets keep it that way.

4. The state: what coat of arms wouldn't be complete with out featuring the land your dedicating the whole thing to, also notice the star, that's the area where this whole thing we call u.b.c. was created in.

5. The anchor: this one's pretty self explanatory; we spend alot of our time here in FLA tossing these thing's off the bow's of boats... it just seemed appropriate.

6. The Palm: do I really need to spell this one out for ya...

7. The Mermaids: people will try to tell ya that mermaids don't exist, well than those people have never been to Weeki Wachee Florida, because if they had been they would have seen a plethora of mermaids swimming about. If you've never been I sudgest you go and maybe wear this shirt well your there I bet the mermaids would love it.

8. The Orange Blossom: another staple of Florida's great landscape, that smell is one of the greatest smell in the world... that & sex wax.

The Land & Sea shirt is now available in 3 different color ways in our online store go check em out.
