The Values That Make Us: Who We Are

Ever wonder why some clothes just feel like "yours" from the second you put them on, while others just sit in the back of the closet? It's because of the details you may not even notice.

We get asked all the time about our brand values and what makes Bearbottom different. Honestly? We aren't trying to reinvent the wheel-we’re just trying to make it spin better. We’re a team of people who love what we do, and hope that it shows.

Here’s a look at the "code" we live by to make sure you’re getting the best gear possible.

We’re Real With You (And Ourselves)

Be Authentic

We aren't here for the fluff. We believe in being honest, humble, and clear. If a fabric isn’t up to par, we don’t use it. If we think we can make something better, we try. We’re a dedicated team just trying to make great gear.

We’re Our Own Best Customers

The Daily Wear Test

We don’t just ship boxes; we live in this stuff. From the office to the gym to the couch, we make products that we actually wear daily. If it doesn't pass our "everyday life" test, we don’t make it. Simple as that.

We Care About the Small Stuff

Take Pride in the Details

The fabric used for a pocket lining matters. We notice how a waistband holds up after twenty washes. We obsess over those details because we know you do. In our community, the "small things" are the whole point—they’re what turn a pair of shorts into your favorite pair of shorts.

We Show Up With Fire

Bring Passion

We show up every day with energy and purpose. Where we focus our attention is reflected in our work, and we focus on making your favorite pair of shorts (and shirts, and pants...). We love the grind of making great apparel, and we hope that energy hits you when you open your package.

We’re Never "Done"

Keep Growing

The search for "better" never stops. We’re constantly asking questions, looking deeper, and learning how to improve our fits and fabrics. We stay curious because the second you think you’ve figured it all out is the second you stop getting better.

We’ve Got Each Other's Backs

Find a Way

Building a brand is a team sport, and you’re on the roster. We stay flexible, get creative, and figure things out together. Whether it's a shipping hurdle or a design challenge, we find a way to make it work for you. We own our work and do what’s right—especially when no one is looking.

We Believe in the "Give"

Giving Back

Success doesn't mean much if you aren't sharing it. We believe in giving freely and often—whether it’s our time, our feedback, or a meal for someone in need. Being a part of the Bearbottom community means being part of a brand that cares about more than just the bottom line.
