Yes, shirts need to be pre-ordered before February 16th and are available for pickup ONLY at the Official Women's Wave Party at Austin Street on Friday evening, March 6th.

Question 4

I can't make it to the Party on Friday night. Is there another way I could get my shirt if I ordered one?

We will not be shipping shirts and we will not have them on the beach on Saturday. If you have a friend coming to the Party they are welcome to pickup your items for you.

We will be doing a pre-order after the event and will be able to ship shirts then, so please wait to pre-order if you can't pickup. Thanks for understanding our limited capacity!
