Katin Base Tee for Everyday Wear
The Katin Base Tee delivers the everyday versatility Katin is known for. Soft cotton and a clean fit make it an easy pull for any part of the week, whether that is a short sleeve shirt for the beach, the boat, or just running around town.
Fabric and Details
This tee is built from 100% certified organic cotton midweight jersey with custom dyes and washes, so the fabric has a settled, lived-in feel rather than a stiff, fresh-off-the-shelf hand. It has a left chest patch pocket and a woven Katin flag label at the side seam.

Who It Is For
This is a base layer tee in the truest sense, made for anyone who wants one clean short sleeve shirt they can wear surfing, on the boat, or just around the house without thinking twice. The chest pocket makes it useful for keys or a pair of sunglasses on a beach day, and the midweight jersey holds up to regular wear better than a lighter, sheer tee.
Wear and Care
Organic cotton jersey like this softens with wear and washing, so expect it to keep getting more comfortable over time. Wash in cool water and skip the high heat dryer setting to protect the custom dye and wash finish and keep the fit true for longer.
About Katin
Katin traces back to 1954, when Nancy and Walter Katin opened a small boat cover business in Surfside, California, just north of Huntington Beach. Born and raised along the California coast, Katin holds the title of California's first brand to make surf trunks, and it continues to build high-quality, durable goods around that same surf heritage.
