MEET FELIPE

My name is Felipe Vargas, a surfer and entrepreneur from Costa Rica. My life and my work are deeply connected to the ocean, the surf culture, and the freedom that comes with living by the coast.

Rootstown’s was born from a passion for surfing, travel, and the laid-back lifestyle of Santa Teresa. Our brand reflects the people, places, and experiences that make surf culture unique.

For me, it’s more than just clothing. It’s about expressing who you are, feeling comfortable, and carrying a piece of the surf lifestyle wherever you go.
