Shane Jones started Jonesea wetsuits in 2013 after putting in 15 years working for a well-known Orange County wetsuits label. Crafted with the skill set of a high-end tailor all of Jonesea's wetsuits are stitched, sewn, and glued ENTIRELY with shane's two hands out of his Costa Mesa "Creation Station."

A neoprene kaleidoscope of colors and patterns adjoin his factory and storefront wall filling Shane's imagination.

Shane's creativity both in and out of the water sets him apart as he routinely crafts one-off wetsuits. Either it be a holiday design or a replica of a famous suits from a specific era (much like he created for the legend, Gerry Lopez--the famous Lighting Bolt jacket), Shane is continually raising the bar for innovation. After over 7,000 wetsuits (and counting)Shane collaborated with well-known high fashion designer Thom Browne line featured in VOGUE and on the Paris runway in 2016.

 

What gives Shane the most stoke is custom fitting and crafting wetsuits for his surf heroes--Legends like Tyler Hatzikain, Gerry Lopez, Walter Hoffman, John Peck, LJ Richards, Mickey Munoz, Dale Dobson, Skip Frye and Guy Takayama-- and that list is continually growing.
