We introduce our ‘Smoker’ cabana set, based on Smoker #1 by Tom Wesselmann (1967). No Wesselmann capsule would be complete without ruby red lips and curling wisps of gray smoke…

🚬👄This smoking hot set features an organic cotton terry cloth top and matching swim trunks in recycled polyester.
🚬👄Embroidery on chest of Tom Wesselmann's iconic smoking mouth with a pocket opening in the space between the lips.

We’ve always loved Wesselmann's vibrant artworks for the visual 'oomph' they deliver, akin to a billboard’s immediacy. Explore this set and all ten (!) items in our Wesselmann capsule online and in store now.

🚬👄It’s our absolute pleasure to announce our latest capsule collection: 10 items (!) based on Tom Wesselmann’s incredible artwork. 🚬👄We’ve always loved Wesselmann's vibrant artworks for the visual 'oomph' they deliver, akin to a billboard’s immediacy. 

🚬👄Perhaps unsurprisingly, what captured our imaginations the most were Wesselmann's works featuring...feet! 🦶Nothing transports you more viscerally and immediately than picturing sand beneath your toes. 🚬👄We may have developed a foot fe**sh along the way...

🚬👄So swipe to count all 10 new products on all 10 of your little piggies (Coincidence? We think not!) 🚬👄Explore the whole collection and read more about the capsule on our blog (link in bio).

🗽Introducing the ‘1976’ Souvenir Cap, our limited edition ode to 1970s New York City. 🗽Tombolo collected (read: hoarded) the 'Large Y' NYC Subway Tokens that were in circulation from 1970-1980, amassing 500 over the course of a few years. 🗽Each hat features an original token with the infamous NYC cutout 'Y' detail— it’s been hand-sewn into the crown and we've also cut out the underlying 'Y' in the fabric so that light shines all the way through. 🗽’Y’ not? 🗽We’ve gone all-out with the details, from the ‘rat wreath’ laurels on the brim to the vintage subway map printed in the hat’s interior. 🗽This hat has been years in the making, and we’ve got a looong list of details to highlight: 

💫🐀💫Original 1970-1980 'Large Y Cutout' NYC subway token hand-sewn into hat with a matching 'Y' of fabric cut out beneath the token.
💫🌃💫Numbered limited edition label 'X of 500' sewn into hat band.
💫🐀💫7-Panel construction (6 radial panels + 1 front crown panel).
💫🌃💫Mid-crown, mid-depth.
💫🐀💫1976 New York Subway map printed on interior.
💫🌃💫'Rat' laurels embroidered on brim.
💫🐀💫Tombolo engraved brass eyelets.

🇮🇹 Meow!! 🇮🇹We’ve celebrated every capsule with a final, unforgettable lunch at in Positano. 🇮🇹Year after year, this delicious tradition left us stuffed — but we got hungrier and hungrier for a collaboration…

🇮🇹 …thankfully , the Sersale family of Le Sirenuse and the Bella family of Da Adolfo go way back, and Sergio agreed to entrust his iconic red fish logo to a few New Yorkers.

🇮🇹Ecco! 🇮🇹A shirt was born!

🇮🇹Casual, effortless simplicity might be the key ingredient of Da Adolfo’s secret sauce (along with their ‘Pesto Da Adolfo’!).🇮🇹 It’s as if you’ve stumbled upon a family gathering and pulled up a chair. 🇮🇹(Never mind that this is a family gathering you can only stumble upon by rickety boat and treacherous dock!).

🇮🇹We wanted to capture Da Adolfo’s timeless ease and playfulness in a cabana shirt.🇮🇹 We took our cues from the logo and the simple t-shirt worn by the servers, but we wanted to marinate our creation with a bit of Tombolo flavor…

🍝🐟🍝This limited edition shirt features Da Adolfo's iconic red fish logo embroidered and dangling from a fishing line that continues over the shoulder and onto the back of the shirt. And two more Da Adolfo fishies stuffed in the pocket for another snack later...
🍝🐟🍝Made of lightweight terry cloth in cream and red. This shirt doubles as a towel on a beach day. (And triples as a very expensive napkin for tomato sauce!). 
🍝 🐟 🍝Antique brass, ring-pull half zip.
🍝 🐟 🍝Custom woven triple collaboration label: 'Da Adolfo,' 'Le Sirenuse' and 'Tombolo.' 
🍝 🐟 🍝The cabana shirt was a common sight on beaches across the coasts of the USA and Europe right around the time that Da Adolfo opened on the idyllic and unassuming beach of Laurito in 1966.

🇮🇹Learn more about Ristorante Da Adolfo and the inspiration behind this shirt (including behind the scenes videos) in our journal on our website. 🇮🇹

🇮🇹We’re so proud to present Part III-- because a summer meal without a third course isn’t a true meal at all!

🇮🇹For the latest capsule collection, we took a proverbial step back to enjoy Le Sirenuse from beyond the confines of the hotel's four walls, highlighting Le Sirenuse’s exterior and surroundings. 🇮🇹Once again, we were so grateful for the opportunity to mesh the Tombolo aesthetic with the staggering and timeless beauty of Positano’s crown jewel, — and to incorporate friends of friends into the collaboration. 🇮🇹Any friend of is a friend of ours! 🇮🇹 Enjoy! 🇮🇹

🇮🇹We’re so proud to present Part III-- because a summer meal without a third course isn’t a true meal at all!

🇮🇹For our latest capsule, we took a proverbial step back to enjoy Le Sirenuse from beyond the confines of the hotel's four walls, highlighting Le Sirenuse’s exterior and surroundings. 🇮🇹The Sersale family opened the doors to Le Sirenuse in 1951 after converting their 18th-century summer villa to a hotel. 🇮🇹Franco Sersale returned home from his extensive travels with a fresh vision for restoring and expanding the cliffside palazzo after finding inspiration in the symmetry and geometry of Middle Eastern design.

🇮🇹Our ‘Finestra’ set evokes a glance upward at the hotel’s iconic facade. Verona may be over 400 miles from Positano, but that didn't stop us from depicting our own twist on a Romeo and Juliet scene-- we've upgraded to a Le Sirenuse hotel room balcony and our 'Juliet' is shrouded behind a window and a cloud of smoke, of course. 🇮🇹Every detail of the 'Finestra' set is an homage to Le Sirenuse's exterior: from the iconic Pompeiian red to the distinct architecture and window design.

🔺🪟🔺Features an embroidered, mysterious figure shrouded behind a cloud of smoke in a Le Sirenuse Hotel room window--which doubles as a working chest pocket.

🔺🪟🔺Embroidered details evoking the distinct architectural elements of Le Sirenuse Hotel's facade.

🔺🪟🔺100% linen in Pompeiian Red.

🔺🪟🔺Custom woven 'Le Sirenuse' collaboration label.

🔺🪟🔺Make it a matching set with the swim trunks!

🔺🪟🔺Ibere is 6 feet tall with a 28" waist and is wearing a size M top and M trunks. Martina is 5' 9.5" and is wearing a size M top too.

🇮🇹Shop the ‘Finestra’ set as well as the other two chapters in our collaboration: our artist collaboration set with ‘Lucio Liguori’ and our ‘Da Adolfo’ Cabana in collaboration with the restaurant a short rickety boat ride away...🇮🇹

🕊The first chapter in this collaboration is our Lucio Liguori set. 🕊We embarked on an ambitious ascent from paint to tiles to photographs to garments-- not unlike the dauntingly steep Positano stairs that are depicted on the shirt itself. 🕊It was a winding path up, but the view at the end was worth all the effort. 🕊We commissioned a work by .liguori.1 , a local artist who is the master of one of the last remaining exports of the Amalfi Coast: hand-painted ceramics. 🕊Lucio's unwavering vision and mercurial mindset made this a particularly fun project. 🕊The Lucio Liguori shIrt will charm the gelato right off your cone— allow us to prove it:

⛵️Our first foray into silk: a blend that encompasses the best of all worlds amongst drape, softness, sheen and breathability. Dry clean only.

⛵️Features a bustling Positano street scene from a bygone era with everyday figures traversing the storied steps of Positano (alongside donkeys and doves), seemingly oblivious of the famous view.

⛵️The painted border of the tiles has been adapted into a geometric design that peeks through tucked back pleats (and the pocket strip on the matching swim trunks).

⛵️Custom woven 'Le Sirenuse' collaboration label.

⛵️You can learn more about Lucio Liguori and the artistic journey in our journal.

🇮🇹Stay tuned for two more chapters: our ‘Finestra’ set, which evokes a glance upward at the hotel’s iconic facade as well as our ‘Da Adolfo’ Cabana in collaboration with the restaurant a short rickety boat ride away...🇮🇹

🦪Before dirty water hot dogs and a dirty Hudson River, New York was home to the largest oyster population in the United States. 🦪Sadly, this population of oysters was rendered functionally extinct due to over-harvesting, dredging, and pollution. 🦪 is on a mission to restore a billion New York oysters by 2035. 🦪An adult oyster can filter 30 gallons of water per day. 🦪Not to mention oyster reefs protect against storms by reducing flooding and the impact of large waves.

🛎For all of June, we are donating 100% of proceeds from our newly launched collaboration capsule- every dollar you spend will go to this great cause.🛎 (Come July, we’ll revert to donating 15%).

🦪A great cause calls for great oyster garments. 🦪Without further ado, we introduce our capsule comprised of a terrycloth shirt, a linen shirt, and recycled swim trunks that match both tops.

🦪Here’s a closer look at the ‘One-in-a-Billion’ linen shirt:

🗽Machine-washable linen in a hazy blue with gray combo on collar, cuffs and pocket strips. 
🗽Oyster embroidery featuring a one-in-a-billion ‘pearl' (button). 
🗽"L.I. Oyster Co." embroidery on wearer's chest. 
🗽Red piping. 
🗽Custom interior label.
🗽Matching swim trunks available!

🦪 is 6'2" and wears a size M top and size M matching swim trunks. 🦪 is 5' 9 1/2" with bust/waist/hips of 34''/25''/36'' and wears a size 6 US dress. 🦪She is wearing a size M top also for an oversized look (also pictured wearing a XS of the terrycloth shirt).

🐚🍝You asked and we…. eventually answered! 🐚🍝We’ve been on Tombolo time, but we promise it was worth the wait. 🐚🍝Introducing matching ‘Vongole!’ shorts — our most requested product addition. 🐚🍝In a world full of tempting pasta-bilities, we think our linen 'Vongole!' cabana sets are the most appetizing of all. 🐚🍝Pair the shorts with our standard unisex fit or with our crop-cut fit designed particularly with women in mind.

🍅Navy, machine-washable linen with stitched crease. 
🍅Elasticized back linked to a drawstrings with silicone dipped knotted ends.
🍅Zipper and ring snap closure.
🍅Border of assorted pasta shapes and clams embroidered on the leg openings.
🍅Red piping on side seams and pocket openings. 

🐚🍝Aaron is 6'2" with a 31" waist and wears size S shorts. (He is wearing the matching shirt in size M in our standard fit). 🐚🍝Lyla is 5' 9 1/2" with bust/waist/hips of 34''/25''/36'' and wears a size 6 US dress. She is wearing size XS shorts (she is also wearing the matching shirt in size S in our crop cut fit).🐚🍝
