COMMUNE DES VAGUES :: SOUL ARCH SS TEE

Product Info

Soul Arch Tee

Description

The Soul Arch Tee hits that sweet spot between classic surf heritage and laid-back comfort. Built from soft-washed, 100% combed ring-spun cotton, it features the iconic “Soul Arch” logo inspired by a 1961 yearbook photo of Joe Severson — an homage to the roots of surf culture. With its relaxed fit and durable build, it’s made for early dawn sessions, beachside hangs, or just kicking back in style.

Details

• 100% combed ring-spun cotton (soft-washed finish)

• Approx. 5.5 oz weight for that substantial tee feel

• Iconic Soul Arch graphic printed front & centre

• Premium screen‐print using water-based ink — extra soft hand feel

• Adheres to Better Cotton initiative and OEKO-TEX low-impact dyes for increased environmental standards

• Classic fit — not slim, not oversized — just relaxed and true to size

• Pre-shrunk to keep the shape after wash

Fit & Styling Note

Fits true to size; for a slightly looser, vintage drape feel, go one size up.
Pair with lightweight chino shorts or washed denim for daytime; layer under a denim jacket or overshirt when the evening breeze kicks in.

About Commune des Vagues

Born in the Basque Country of southwest France, Commune des Vagues is a premium surf-inspired brand built around community, creativity, and craftsmanship. The name translates to “Community of Waves,” a reflection of the founder Ronnie Reyes’ vision of bringing together people from different walks of life who share a love for the ocean and surfing culture.

Founded in Guéthary in 2015, Commune des Vagues was inspired by evenings spent among surfers, artists, and friends — all connected by the sea. From that moment, the idea was simple: create thoughtful, well-made pieces that honor the rhythm of coastal life and the spirit of togetherness.

The Philosophy

Commune des Vagues is guided by the mantra “Make Only What Is Necessary.”
Each collection is intentionally small-batch and produced at a pace that respects people and the planet. Every garment is designed in France and responsibly made in Europe using durable, high-quality fabrics. The brand emphasizes timeless design, sustainable practices, and functional comfort — made to perform in the water and look great out of it.

The Products

Commune des Vagues first made its name with its premium boardshorts, crafted for both performance and everyday wear. The range now includes a curated selection of tees, hats, and lifestyle apparel, all carrying the brand’s distinctive balance of surf heritage and modern minimalism.

The Spirit

More than a surf brand, Commune des Vagues is a celebration of connection — to the ocean, to craft, and to each other. Rooted in the Basque coast and inspired by waves worldwide, the brand invites everyone to be part of its community.
