A New Collaboration

Boardshorts from the 2024 Pendleton x Birdwell collection.

We are proud to announce a collaboration with Birdwell, the heritage American beach brand known for handmade, premium boardshorts that stand the test of time. Like Pendleton, Birdwell has deep ties to surf culture. We are excited about this capsule of designs that were produced with veneration for timeless California surf style.

The pattern at the heart of this collection is Rancho Arroyo. The central diamond motif represents Southern California’s Lopez Lake, located amongst the sage scrub and oak woodland of the Los Padres National Forest. The line includes the key swim, clothing, and accessory styles.
