The Idea
While teaching kiteboarding and encountering people of all shapes, sizes and levels of experience, it became obvious that main stream equipment didn't always hit the mark. The generic cuts and sizes were made to fit all, but didn't fit many properly, especially women. The style and durability of the materials didn't always pass the test either, so K8 was born.
Style & Quality
All products are made with the highest-quality and most durable materials possible. During the design process, comfort, functionality and practically were top of mind. Years of searching and experimenting has resulted in identifying the right materials for the right application, whether it be wind resistance, sun protection, durability and/or comfort.
100% Handmade
It's just me and my sewing machines. All products are designed, tested and made in Key West, Florida. After firsthand experience and years of trial and error, these products were designed to address common problem areas.
