The Nautica Story

Beginning in 1983 when founder and designer, David Chu, had one clear vision: bring the inspiration of the seas to everyday style across the world. 

Starting with only six outerwear styles, he grew Nautica into a renowned lifestyle brand with over 35 categories in more than 65 countries. Today, the brand continues to be defined by the original vision of reimagined nautical style. With a refreshed take on heritage, Nautica provides high-quality fashion that delivers versatility and comfort, with a multi-generational appeal.
