So, I live on a tropical island in the Caribbean. Nice! Except when I need something delivered…delivery is always iffy and import duties are even more certain than “always.” For almost a year I watched the Yiume site, then I pounced when their New Year’s sale coincided with my wife’s travels to the U.S. 25 shirts, all bought using Yiume’s size chart and a general trust in an unseen product which stemmed from a review of the reviews.
Yiume kicks ass! These shirts are beautiful, comfortable, well made, and suit my style. My style is flip flops, cargo shorts, and a funky Hawaiian shirt. If I have a signature on this scrap of desert rock surrounded by a warm sea, it’s showing up to dive with the coral restoration team outfitted in an apropos shirt. Now I’m sporting a new shirt for a year’s worth of alternate weekends - sea monsters, octopi, colorful fish, tropical birds, lush plants, tiki drinks, and even a scuba diving cat. Love it. Simple pleasures - that’s all we’ve got on island time. Thanks Yiume!
