V Tides Moon Phases Hoodie | Garment-Dyed Graphic Pullover
Find Your Perfect Fit
Built for the coast. Made to move. Here's everything you need to find your ideal size — and understand what makes our apparel worth wearing.
What is Ring-Spun Cotton?
Not all cotton is created equal. Our tees are crafted from ring-spun cotton — a premium process that makes a real difference in how your shirt looks, feels, and lasts.
Ring-spun cotton is made by continuously twisting and thinning the cotton strands, aligning the fibers in the same direction. The result:
- Softer to the touch — noticeably smoother than standard cotton
- Stronger and more durable — less pilling, longer life
- Better for printing — smooth surface holds graphic detail and color vibrancy longer
- Lightweight and breathable — ideal for coastal climates and active wear
What is Garment Dyeing?
Garment dyeing gives our tees and hoodies that lived-in, vintage look straight out of the bag. The entire finished garment is dyed as one piece — so the dye absorbs unevenly, pooling at seams and fading at edges, creating a naturally worn, one-of-a-kind character.
- Rich color with natural variation — no two shirts look exactly alike
- Pre-washed and pre-shrunk — what you order is what you get
- Vintage coastal aesthetic built in — looks like a favorite shirt you've had for years
- Gets better with age — color softens beautifully with each wash
⚠️ Care tip: Wash cold, inside out, tumble dry low. Slight color variation in the first wash is normal — it's part of the character.

Track the Tides. Follow the Moon.
There's a rhythm to the coast that runs deeper than the waves — lunar, ancient, and always pulling. The V Tides Moon Phases Hoodie taps into that current. A subtle sequence of moon phases leads into the word "TIDES" across the chest; the back repeats the lunar motifs beside a bold, weathered "V / TIDES" composition. Soft, coastal, and quietly striking on a garment-dyed canvas that feels like a foggy morning spent watching the water.
The heavy ringspun cotton gives it weight and warmth without bulk, settling into your rotation as the layer you reach for on cold drives, early-morning beach walks, and late-night bonfires. A hoodie for tide-trackers, night walkers, and anyone who feels the pull of the moon.
