The first roll call
Six swimmers meet at the east steps before work.
Est. at first light
A swim team became a way of making things.
FITZPATRICK TRADING LLC started with a handful of friends, one borrowed lane and a badly printed team tee everyone refused to stop wearing.
The accidental uniform
A local printer makes twelve coral team tees. They sell out at a Saturday swim.
NPNB takes shape
Swim, apparel and useful objects become one considered system.
The current widens
A global storefront, local sessions and an open invitation.
NPNB / the name
The name NPNB
NPNB is the name on every piece. FITZPATRICK TRADING LLC is the full company name behind the label and the source of every decision.
Product principle / 01
Make less. Use it more.
We work in small runs, hold permanent shapes and improve them over time. The goal is not novelty. It is attachment.
