The Story Behind the Brand

Terry Micklos has helped shape and build iconic names in apparel, including Hot Tuna Surf, Ed Roth (Rat Fink), and Cutter & Buck Men’s Apparel. Atomik Tiki is the natural evolution of that experience... born from years of watching trends, collecting vintage shirts, and recognizing the perfect moment to bring something different to market. It draws from:
