Slowtide art-inspired towels, blankets, and changing ponchos 336 E. 17th St. Costa Mesa Company tagline: “Welcome to the fold.” About: “Slowtide blends thoughtful materials with artist-driven design to create textiles meant for everyday living. Pieces that move easily between the beach, the outdoors, and the home. Slowtide started in 2015 between California and Hawaii. After long days spent in and around the water, founders Wylie Von Tempsky, Kyle Spencer, and Dario Phillips began to feel the towels they were using could be better. The design felt generic. The quality fell short. So, they started making their own. What began as a better towel quickly became something more.” slowtide.co
