BUILT FOR THOSE BORN TO BE OUTDOORS

Door Born's mission is to put the beauty, sophistication, and fun of the Great Lakes on the map, and on your back. We’re more than a brand. We are a community of people who value outdoor recreation, healthy lifestyles, and having fun.

Our Story

FAQs

Do you have a brick and mortar location?

No, we do not. However, if you'd like to shop in person and meet our staff we'd love to see you at one of our in-person events! Check out our About Us page to learn more about where you can find us!

What does UPF mean? Is that like SPF?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. It refers to the rating system used on clothing to indicate how well they block UV radiation. A UPF 50 rating allows only 1/50th of the sun's UV rays through the fabric. Our UPF 50+ clothing carries the Skin Cancer Foundation's Seal of Recommendation. A standard white cotton T-Shirt would have about a UPF 5 rating for refrence.

Also, it is important to note that the UPF rating actually increases as you wear, wash, and use the garment. The rating is higher when the garment is wet. The tight-knit weave of the fabric, color, and performance material work together to create a strong UPF rating.

Do you have to be Born in Door County to wear Door Born?

Absolutely not! I've never met a person who was born in Patagonia, yet I've seen thousands of people sporting the name on the front of their clothing.

Door Born represents our hyper regionality and roots to the Great Lakes, Door County, and the endless outdoor opportunities in our beautiful region.

We were sick of wearing Rocky Mountain and West Coast outdoor gear, passing it off as, "close enough." It was time to build an outdoor brand for the best region, our region, the Great Lakes.

Do you do custom printing?

We are not a print shop, we are a clothing brand. However, we will help local businesses from October-April with custom printing.

UPF50+ Performance

Protect your skin with UPF 50+ rating while remaining cool and dry from our moisture-wicking performance polyester. They're the best thing you can wear while enjoying your time outdoors and under the sun.

WHY SHOP DOOR BORN?

High Quality + Style

Are you sick of seeing unoriginal, mass produced, cheaply made clothing?

We were too.

Door Born takes pride in the fact that all of our designs are created in-house, we spend a ton of time finding long lasting and comfortable garments, and we are committed to continuously delivering the best quality to our customers.

SUSTAINABILITY

Not only do we promote outdoor recreation, we also give back to make sure our wild places stay wild and stay open to the public!

Door Born is a 1% business, where 1% of sales are donated towards land conservation. We love to support Door County Land Trust.

NO CORPORATE BS!

Door Born is locally owned and operated by Rex Meikle. The goal is to consistently deliver value and quality to you - our customers. There are no greedy investors or board members here to answer to.

REP THE GREAT LAKES

There is a lack of authentic representation for the Great Lakes lifestyle. We have something special here that the West Coast and Rocky Mountain lifestyle brands can't understand!
