Inspired by the Whale Shark

Gentle, enduring, and unmistakable, the whale shark is one of the ocean’s most extraordinary species — and the inspiration behind this recycled sherpa fleece. Smoky greys and turquoise spotting echo the species’ natural markings, giving each piece its own unique character. 

Made for life above the waves, it’s a versatile half-zip layer for coastal living, cooler days, and post-swim warmth. Featuring a high neckline, fleece-lined pockets, and a relaxed fit you can rely on. 

Designed for Ocean Advocates

Made from 100% discarded fishing nets, this piece helps give new life to end-of-life gear — transforming it into apparel that protects what inspires us.

 

Some species live far beyond our sight, yet depend on our awareness.

Wear their patterns. Carry their stories.

Protect what you love.

Such a beautiful fleece

Such a beautiful fleece, gorgeous stand out pattern and I haven't seen anything else remotely similar! Really cosy as it's lined inside too. Washes well also! Great pockets which is always useful for me on a hike. Love it, wear it all the time 😁

My new favourite Fleece

Love this fleece, such a good material and perfect to wear in every occasion. I chose a size M which gives it a bit more of a baggier look, but could have also had an S and if would have still fitted great. Customer support is also amazing, so would definitely recommend buying from this company.

Great jacket! However

Great jacket! However, very unprepared for the extra ups shipping costs, which did not come up until after the jacket was initially purchased and shipped. So if you are not based in the UK and are purchasing from here, definitely beware!

Eye catching 🐳

FYI, 5"2, 60kg size 8/10uk, I wear a size S in this product. I absolutely love this fleece. I've had mine now for a couple of months and I have so many people asking me where it is from. It's eye catching from afar but also up close. The style of the fleece is great, it's not long and lifeless. It holds shape. It's warm and incredibly well made. Definitely looking to buy more from this company ! Thank you for a great fleece.

Whale shark fleece

I was mindlessly scrolling on my phone when an advert for the whale shark fleece popped up and before I knew it, I’d ordered this fleece I didn’t know I needed. It was a big splurge for some thing I hadn’t been planning on buying, but the colours and patterns totally pulled me in. It arrived today and I have no regrets, it’s absolutely beautiful and the design has been very well thought out. It’s cropped but not too cropped, just enough to sit on the hips. And the elasticated bottom edge gives it that casual tucked in look, without having to tuck it in. It’s effortless and that pattern!! Beautiful

I bought it as a gift for my daughter, while she absolutely loves it and wears it a lot she wishes it was a little longer in the body and sleeves.

So comfortable!

Possibly my new favourite fleece. The material and feel are super nice. It's so cosy! I am UK 16 so opted for a Size L; upon delivery i realised i could have opted for M as the fit is slightly baggier than expected, however that is not an issue! Would recommend!

Such good material, you can tell its made well. The staff are so friendly and amazing, excellent communication.

My new favourite fleece! So warm, it's a beautiful pattern, from an independent small brand with a cause that matters hugely and it's made from recycled plastic bottles which is even better. It's such good quality, i can't recommend this enough.

I AM OBSESSED! As soon as I saw this fleece I knew I would love it and since its arrived I've barely taken it off! The quality is amazing, the design is stunning and its so warm and cosy, and of course its made from recycled plastics! As a marine biologist I couldn't ask for anything better!
