We didn’t come from a boardroom. We came from the world.
TE’VAI was started by one person in Poland — formally. But in reality, this is a movement, not a brand. A collective shaped by water people, athletes, creatives, thinkers. Anyone who values quality, knowledge, respect for others and the planet — and wants to share that energy.
We’ve got people behind TE’VAI living in Poland, French Polynesia, Peru, Spain, and UAE (Dubai). Every one of them leaves a mark on what we create. Every drop reflects all of us. (We're currently working on info about each of us, so stay tuned!)
We create for you. We listen, watch, and adapt — what you wear, what you like, what needs to shift. Above all, we make quality clothing. Always from certified materials, always sourced and produced in ways that respect people and the planet.
Our pieces are oversized, comfortable, and simple in cut — but the graphics carry the story.
We work in two distinct styles:
a bold, Polynesian-inspired linework that echoes traditional tattooing, and a more delicate, minimal style — sometimes with subtle color, sometimes with a quiet motto. All of it drawn by human hands.
In an age obsessed with AI, we choose human creativity.
Like in Polynesian tattooing, every line tells a story — told by a person, not generated by an algorithm.
Every Polynesian-inspired piece is reviewed by our Polynesian crew. We don’t copy. We don’t trace. We draw, study, and create — from scratch, for you.
We produce in small batches. Locally — in Pomorskie, Poland. Every item is checked by us, by hand, before it ships out. We work with a handful of skilled people, not factories. No shortcuts. Each design is tested, worn, and washed in real life, so we know exactly how it holds up.
We regularly verify our suppliers and the authenticity of their certifications.
We don’t carry certifications yet, but we’re working toward it. Until then, we make sure our partners are the real deal. Want to know what standards we ask them to meet?
Just reach out — we’ll show you everything ;)
