Born from the needs of British cold water surfers, Finisterre builds the best and most sustainable products possible for those that share our love of the sea. Finisterre is a B Corps certified business.It started in 2003 in a flat above a surf shop with an innovative fleece that was designed to keep out chill winds and warm up cold bodies. Since these early days, driven by those who have jumped on board, supported by our customers and suppliers, the brand and product has widened beyond these original beginnings. Yet from our cliff top workshop in St. Agnes, we stay true to our original design ethos of functionality and sustainability brought to life in an understated style and identity, always remaining committed to product, environment and people.The name of one of the most rugged headlands that bravely bears the full brunt of the North Atlantic gales, and a former shipping forecast area, Finisterre literally means end of the earth or land’s end. The place where land ends has intrigued man for centuries, fostering both a real and a romantic relationship with the sea; a relationship that runs deep in our narrative.Since day one we have taken a pioneering approach to making better and more sustainable product, challenging and innovating, seeking alternatives to what has gone before. We’re committed to making informed decisions about our impact on the environment and are constantly trying to push boundaries to make the best product we can. In our eyes this is gear that will be with you the longest; and the longer you have it, the more attached to it you become.
A sustainable brand that is ahead of the curve in many aspects in the current climate, Finisterre is truly innovative in its field. Born from the needs of British cold water surfers, B Corp certified Finisterre builds the best and most sustainable products possible for those that share their love of the sea. A notion that is also clearly evident in their employee culture – with weekly ‘sea tuesdays’ free surf lessons and other wellbeing benefits such as access to Headspace and regular yoga classes.
