About Us

Born by the Sea — Worn by You

Bourne Creek Apparel is a small, locally-owned brand born and raised on the Bass Coast in Victoria. We design every piece here at home, using premium Australian-grown organic cotton. From tees and hoodies to crewnecks, kidswear, and accessories, our collections are inspired by the places we love most. Whether you're showing off local pride or taking a piece of the coast with you wherever you go. We are a local family who live and work on the Bass Coast when not working on Bourne Creek Apparel. We are apart of the community who get to call this amazing piece of Australia home and wanted to share that passion and pride I know we all feel. 

Our approach is different:

• Ethically sourced, GOTS-certified organic cotton
• OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification
• Free from harmful chemicals
• No sweatshops or child labour
• Proudly Australian made, supporting local makers and suppliers

Every purchase helps keep the Bass Coast community thriving — and serves as a reminder that thoughtful, sustainable fashion can be both beautiful and rooted in place.

Why Sustainability Matters to Us

At Bourne Creek Apparel, sustainability isn’t a buzzword, it’s the foundation of everything we do. Our garments begin their journey with Australian-grown organic cotton that's GOTS-certified, ensuring earth-friendly production from farm to fabric. Plus, with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification, every item is guaranteed free from harmful substances like pesticides, heavy metals, and formaldehyde.

Beyond fabrics, we support local

Our pieces are designed, printed, and finished right here on the Bass Coast and Melbourne, helping reduce our carbon footprint and invest in our community. Sustainability means creating clothing that lasts; and with every purchase, you're investing in better clothes for a better coast.
