What is America? A Country? A piece of land? A geographic region on a map? Technically all those things but to us being a proud American is more of an idea than any physical location or tangible thing. Being American is a concept, a figment of human imagination. An idea that all humans are created equal and free to chase their individual dreams of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We at American Terrapin believe in the principles of these ideals. We created our brand with a desire to contribute to what it means to be an American and to share in the imagination that is this American experiment we participate in. Loving the promise of America is not resigned to one group of people or even to just the lucky few who happen to live here. We at American Terrapin believe these principles of liberty should be the norm in the world and not the exception. If our apparel can help bring humanity just a little bit closer to loving the notion of individual freedom and promoting the concept that all deserve the equality of opportunity, we will be proud. Wearing our gear is a sign you, as a free-thinking human agree with us on one thing; The idea of America is alright, alright, alright.
American Terrapin was founded with a mission to provide quality apparel with unique, custom designs and artwork. What you wear is more than just a necessity. It is a representation of who you are, what you stand for and what is important to you as a unique, free thinking individual. We took our love of art, music, sports, technology, America and of course turtles to create an eclectic line of clothing for everyday life. Our clothing line is a conversation piece designed to inspire and bring all freedom loving people together. No reason we can’t do that with a little style.
