Need a new swim suit for that winter getaway? Consider L Space by Monica Wise!

If there is one thing that Whalebone Urban Surf aspires to bring to the Triangle, it is to carry the widest variety of high quality swimwear in the area.  Many people have expressed the lack of places to get a decent swimsuit in the Triangle and that is something we want to change.  Being as though we are a surf shop, one of our main specialities will always be swimwear.  We will carry a vast array of suits from many surf brands. 

One line that we are particularly excited about carrying is L Space by Monica Wise.  The California based swimwear line is comprised of trend-setting suits made from the highest-quality fabrics and hard wear.  The line includes one pieces, bikinis and lounge wear.  L Space tries to personify what they call "beach-chic" and it is very obvious that they are doing a great job of making sure their swimwear exudes that sense of " California cool".  Another thing we at Whalebone love about L Space is the ability to mix and match different styles and sizes.  Customers are able to put together their own custom swimsuit and it is that ability to mix and match pieces that we believe has helped L Space become so popular. Wise's designs truly celebrate a woman's figure no matter what size or age you are and that is truly beautiful.  After being around for over 15 years it is no surprise that the line has a bevy of devoted followers that include Cameron Diaz, Jessica Alba and Gwen Stefani among others.  Whether you are going on a tropical winter vacation to escape the cold or if you are just ready to start preparing your summer wardrobe, we ask you to come in and consider any of our amazing L Space suits and lounge wear.


Consider this beauiful mutlicolored print!  We have both of these pieces in stock!

Whalebone brings Rusty's "The Wired Series" to the Triangle!

Now a days it is rare to find someone who does not own some sort of portable music player.  Whether it be an Ipod, IPhone or MP3 player, it seems like the entire country has jumped on the digital music player bandwagon.  Rusty, a world-renown sportswear company, has taken America's love for portable music to the next level with the introduction of The Wired Series.   It is a collection of both hooded pull-over and zip up fleeces with headphones subtly built in to the draw cords.  These headphones are unique in that they are made with HB3 Technology, which basically means they have superior sound quality.  Also, all fleeces in the series are completely MACHINE WASHABLE, which we know is great news to busy moms who do not have the time to sort through laundry!

The collection includes styles for both men and women in sizes small to extra large.  Whalebone is extremely excited that we can bring this hot new item to the Triangle area.  These fleeces and jackets are great to wear when exercising or just for your routine everyday activities.  Girls, one of our personal favorites that we have in stock right now is the Blizzard.  It is a zip up with a padded vest built in with attractive gold buttons and zipper.  It is available now for $74.50.


For our gentleman customer we suggest the Flag zip up fleece.  Available in green, grey and black for $49.50.



Come see us and let us find you the perfect selection from The Wired Series.

Whalebone Urban Surf has all your cold weather needs!

When the average consumer hears the phrase "surf shop", nine times out of ten that consumer is associating that phrase with warmer weather. Whalebone Urban Surf in Raleigh, NC is trying to break the stigma that surf shops only offer warmer climate geared products.  While Whalebone does carries a variety of swimwear, warm weather clothing and accessories year-round, we also have an extensive inventory of coats, hoodies, leg wear, and sweaters for men, women and children!  In fact one of Whalebone's most popular items thus far has been Billabong's Shawna Pea Coat in Emerald Bay.  This coat is the perfect pop of color for any winter wardrobe.



Whalebone Urban Surf also has a huge selection of men's sweaters, hoodies and accessories.  For the more clean cut male we suggest picking up one of Volcom's classic men's v-neck sweaters.  The more urban gentleman would love RVCA's Puffer Fleece Jacket as seen below.


Whether you are male, female, young or old, Whalebone Urban Surf is the perfect place to find all your cold weather needs!  Stop by and let one of our sales associates help you find that perfect winter wardrobe staple!
