finisterre
Finisterre makes cold-water surf and outdoor apparel from St Agnes, Cornwall, where Tom Kay founded the company in 2003 to solve the problem of staying warm surfing British winters. The line spans wetsuits, waterproof shells, insulated jackets, knitwear, base layers and underwear, with recycled and natural fibres, repair and resale programmes underpinning its sustainability claims. It trades online and through its own UK coastal shops, remains independent with outside investment behind it, and released a luggage collaboration with Samsonite Japan in 2024.
