Our Beginning
In 2023, Kate launched Sunsup with one clear vision: make outdoor products that women actually want to use. It started with our original patterned paddle boards and women loved them!

Community Growth
But the more the brand grew, the more we noticed something. Women weren't just buying paddle boards, they were looking for someone to do it with. A community that made them feel a part of something. It all started to make sense. It took leaving everything to realise what was missing. And what was missing was this.

The Products Brought Us Together
We started with paddle boards because that's where it began — out on the water. But the more women found us, the clearer it became. That gap — between wanting the outdoor life and actually having the community to enjoy it — is what Sunsup is really here to close. Everything we make now is built around that life.

The Community Is Why We Stay
This year, Sunsup has a home — and it's our biggest move yet. The Sunsup flagship store in Salcombe is officially open, and it's everything we wanted it to be. A space for the community, the products, and everything still to come. We're not giving the rest away just yet. But stay close — we're just getting started.
We Love The Outdoors So We Try Not To Ruin It
The outdoor industry creates a lot of synthetic waste — and we'd rather be part of the solution. We use recycled materials wherever they meet our standards, and where they don't yet, we build things to last instead. Because the most sustainable product is the one you never need to replace.
