Box-fit tee with surfboard design graphics
Deus Ex Machina started in a Sydney motorcycle workshop, but they've always had one foot in the surf – that easy crossover between bikes, boards, and beachside culture that defines Australian coastal life. This box-fit tee celebrates their surfboard design credentials with a cartoon log graphic (as in longboard, for the uninitiated) that nods to classic surf style without taking itself too seriously. The quick-dry polycotton fabric makes sense whether you're actually hitting the waves or just want something that doesn't stay damp all afternoon after a dip. With a nice contemporary boxy cut, the heavy enzyme stone wash gives it lived-in softness right out of the packet.

What do you get when you cross a legendary surfwear entrepreneur with a serious motorcycle addiction and a healthy disregard for tribal boundaries? Well, you get Deus ex Machina – the brand that's been proving since 2006 that there's no rule saying you can't love both the roar of a café racer and the whisper of a perfect barrel.
Founded by Dare Jennings (he of iconic surf brand Mambo), Deus started life as a custom motorbike workshop and coffee house in the Sydney suburb of Camperdown. The radical idea? Instead of shoehorning people into outdoor tribes – bikers, surfers, skaters, cyclists or whatever – why not just celebrate whatever gets you fired up? Their workshop soon transformed into a ‘run-what-you-brung’ social and creative space, known locally as the ‘Temple of Enthusiasm’.
From those early days of engine oil, freshly brewed coffee and dawn raids on the Pacific Ocean, Deus has grown into a global phenomenon. Their clothing captures that same anything-goes spirit – sun-bleached graphics that look like they've survived their fair share of backroad adventures, vintage-inspired cuts that work equally well on the beach or in the workshop, and a lived-in aesthetic that’s catnip to the adventurous. Because at the end of the day, whether you’re into one particular outdoor activity or all of them – as Deus would say, ‘it's all the same juice’.
