Octovo X Tilley Surfboards

Octovo is a travel brand known for their bags and luggage, for their second Off Map collaboration project, they worked with Southern Oregon-based Tilley Surfboards and created five individual designs built using Tilley’s method of combining local, custom milled wooden skins and components with hand-shaped foam. The boards have different shapes to match a wide range of conditions for traveling surfers, they feature their own graphic theme and come with a leash cup cast in titanium or bronze. Each board is paired with a tailored, balanced carrying bag fitted with leather-covers at the nose and tail, for protecting your precious board on the road. watch the video
