San Diego Riptide Tee – Not Forgotten Series
Feel the Surge.
Before the wave crashed, the San Diego Riptide brought hard hits and high energy to the Arena Football League in the early 2000s. With bold blues, crashing surf, and a name that still rips through nostalgia, this officially unofficial throwback tee celebrates a team that made every down feel like 4th and goal on the beach.
Printed on our signature sustainable tri-blend tee (soft, breathable, and built to last), the Riptide shirt honors a time when arena football met SoCal swagger. Whether you cheered them on at the San Diego Sports Arena or you’re just here for the surf-inspired drip—this one’s for the real fans.
This tee doesn’t just look good—it does good.
Made from a crazy-soft blend of 50% recycled polyester, 25% organic ring-spun cotton, and 25% modal, this shirt feels as good on your conscience as it does on your skin. The fit is relaxed, the fabric is breathable, and the vibe is all vintage—just like the teams we dream up.
Every shirt helps divert up to six plastic bottles from landfills and reduces environmental impact through the C-FREE® program, which measures and offsets the product’s total carbon footprint—from creation to delivery. That means your shirt is not only sustainably made, but its impact has been certified and balanced through verified carbon offset projects.
