So from the sound of it - it comes off a little Patagonia, but more about the ocean then the land.
I have always felt if someone is putting money into the surf industry then more times then not that's a good thing. This time it's Bob Hurley former CEO of Billabong USA then the founder of Hurley LLC - in which he sold to Nike then tried to buy it back and that fell through so here we are with Florence Marine X. We wish nothing but the best for Bob, John and whoever else will be involved. In other Hurley family news Bob's oldest son Jeff is bringing back Simple shoes - don't write these guys out, if anyone can pull something off to come out ahead put your faith in Bob Hurley!
Don't confuse Florence Marine X with Florence by Mills (Created by Millie Bobby Brown daughter of 80's Icon Singer Bobby Brown which is located in El Segundo California)
