'VI' Standards of Quality
I am a perfectionist. It has taken years to finally admit this, but here it is: I am a perfectionist. Sloppy
ding repair jobs on my board drive me crazy. I prefer/must have the toilet paper roll from the top. I even
used to sort my baseball cards in the same order as the Beckett baseball guide when I was a kid.
It can be an endless obsession, really. Primarily because I've somehow rationalized it in my brain as a
constant search for progression. A discovery of our fundamental truths. The way I look at it, it's about
doing things right and never being satisfied with the status-quo: 'Why is this happening?' 'How can things
be done better?' 'Why are we thinking like this and how can we think outside the great box we're confined
to?'
When it comes to a search for progression, BAYVI, by all means, is no exception. The quality standards
we impose on every shirt, hat, wallet, or boardshort that leaves the design and production rooms are
admittedly demanding. Every stitch color, count, and thread type is examined with scrutiny. It's the same
focus on quality that we've instilled into this brand since the first day we started six years ago.
The yet-to-be-released BAYVI 'Green Room' Tee, (releasing next week), with cotton BAYVI hangtags.
Every touchpoint you have with our product is an interaction you have
with BAYVI--in some way, shape,
or form. Six years ago, with the help of a wonderful team and support
structure, we founded this brand
based on a single principle: passion. It's this same passion that
still drives every design decision and
production run today.
The way we look at, the product that we make represents our identity and who we are. Every single
product. Every thread, every ink change, and every tag symbolizes what we're all fighting for. You, your
fellow 6A co-members, we at the BAYVI rooms, the team in the water and at the parks, and all of us:
fighting together, regardless of background or what region you represent.
By far, the biggest reason we have a great product is because of you. You constantly email us with your
feedback. You send us photos of you wearing it and give us your recommendations. And from those
recommendations, we've adjusted sleeve lengths, fits, and styles to better match our bodies.

Our new tees have progressed further: namely, they are now 100% custom. We start with the fabric roll,
do our own colors, softening, and treatments to the fabric, we run our own measurements and specs and
stitch the shirts together from scratch. Piece by piece. We take a lot of pride in the fact that a lot of passion
goes into each and every piece that you wear. It's always been like that and it always will be.
So let us know your feedback and we can incorporate your changes in our future runs to make your
perfect tee.
Because just maybe...we are all perfectionists in our own right.
