About Us
Rooted in the rugged beauty of Grand Manan Island, Worn by the Water Apparel celebrates life shaped by the Bay of Fundy. Every piece is inspired by the salt air, weathered shores, and timeless traditions of coastal living. We create apparel that blends minimalist design with authentic maritime heritage—clothing meant to be lived in, whether you’re on the water, by the fire, or wandering cliffside trails.
Crafted with comfort, durability, and a sense of place, our designs carry the spirit of the Bay of Fundy: bold, resilient, and deeply connected to nature. More than clothing, Worn by the Water is a reminder of where we come from and a tribute to the tides that shape us.
Worn by the Water Apparel is proudly owned and operated by a Grand Manan husband-and-wife duo, and our two kids in tow. Inspired by the raw beauty of our home, we set out to create a brand that stays true to local heritage while embracing durability and sustainability.
Every design is created by us and reflects a unique connection to island living—whether it’s the working waterfront or the everyday rhythm of life by the tide. Our apparel is made to be lived in, carrying the spirit of Grand Manan wherever the waves may take you.
