It all began on a surf trip to San Pancho, Mexico for two friends, Jennifer Hinton and Thayer Sylvester.

As we lounged in a hammock waiting for the waves to roll back in, we lamented how hard it was to find board shorts that could keep up with us – real women with real bodies and a real passion for adventure. And just like that, Carve Designs was born.

Carve Designs styles represent our spirit: fun-loving, hardworking, confident, and inclined to get where we want to go.
