Chumbalaia is a clothing brand founded in the summer of 2023. The brand was created by myself, Luke Rubino. I am a high school senior living on the Outer Banks. I use a heat press in my basement to print my original drawings onto shirts. My friends and I surf in our free time. When the waves get big on the Outer Banks they become gnarly and unforgiving. It takes extreme relaxation to allow muscle memory to take over when getting spit out of a barrel. Chumbalaia represents the necessity to be extremely relaxed at certain points in time. Relaxation is achieved when we are doing things we love with people we love. Take it easy.
