Critical Slide Society
Born on Sydney’s Eastern Beaches in Bondi, The Critical Slide Society began as more than just a brand—it was a creative collective. Surfers, artists, photographers, illustrators, musicians, and filmmakers came together, united by a shared love for the culture of the coast. Most of us in the UK found the brand through its blog of all things cool and counter surf culture. It's apparel has come in and out of the country dependent on political whims .. which so effect counter culture smaller brands. We here at Mango are glad its back and stronger than ever.
For Critical Slide Society, the mission has always been to connect people through a mix of fashion, art, surf, and community. By going back to the roots of surf and coastal culture. They've brought sustainability and authenticity to the forefront. Today, The Critical Slide Society is proud to have won Best Boardshorts three years running, with a global presence in top-tier retail stores and our own spaces showcasing the essence of the brand. Staying true to their origins, they remain 100% independent and surfer-owned.
