Meet our first customer...

Vincent Patrick Ansetta, at 68, made the very first purchase at Tropical Seas Clothing. His determined "my way or the highway" attitude was matched only by his kindness. Vincent had a knack for brightening days, cherishing every dog he met, and enjoying his 99-cent cigars. His purchase sparked hope, driving us forward six years later. Vincent, beloved grandfather of our founder Tyler Blendowski, passed peacefully in 2021, leaving us with cherished memories. We dedicate our past successes and future dreams to his memory, forever grateful for his inspiration
