Tatoo

This shop is a great place to get those little things you need for outdoor activities. There is a decent variety of packs and duffles, and also practical clothing of good quality that will hold up to wear and washings.

I got a few t-shirt dresses with spaghetti straps (couldn’t resist) but my favorite thing from Tatoo was a lightweight fleece shirt. I can wear it on its own after a dive in the chilly Pacific Ocean water, or layer it under a jacket for extra warmth. And of course, fleece is so easy to wash and gets dry fast (always a consideration on a dive boat).

Again, t-shirts run about $12, the dress may have been $15. The fleece shirt was about $40.
