Neven started with a simple problem: great sunglasses were overpriced and underwhelming.

Every frame we create is a reminder of where we came from and how far passion can take you. What drives us isn’t just selling sunglasses — it’s redefining what people expect from a brand that truly cares.

WATERMEN

At Original Watermen, our lifeguard clothing is made to withstand the strenuous and enthralling conditions lifeguards and watermen face on an everyday basis. Seasoned watermen know the level of comfort that is needed for those laborious 15-hour days, and our lifeguard specific clothing is made by lifeguards who have truly spent a lifetime in the water patrolling, surfing, swimming, diving, paddling – you name it. Original Watermen’s lifeguard clothing idea started in the 80’s with lifeguard Boardshorts being sold, out of VW camper van, to local lifeguards and watermen in Carlsbad, California, and quickly grew to suiting the State of California Lifeguards. Now, our Boardshorts line outfits over 2000 lifeguard agencies with a full line of not just Boardshorts, but gear and equipment that are used by a majority of beach and public municipalities across the United States.
