Surfing Clothes

Watches — This could be counted as an accessory but since it's worn I'll put it with surfing clothes.
Indispensable for me since I live by the watch: pick up kids, run to work, and of course, catch the right tide. I have a Freestyle tide watch and use the tide function all the time. I can set it to different beaches when I travel without having to worry about running to the Internet café or getting a local tide chart.

Ugg Boots — These are great because they’re so fast to put on and take off. It saves me time when I’m in a hurry or when I’m wet and cold and just want to get on the road after a surf session. They can get pricey, but I found a cheap imitation at Payless for $20. I’ve had them for about a year and they haven't fallen apart yet.

Sunglasses — Need them for that glare off the sand and water when you’re sitting on the beach. Haven’t yet tried the goggles but wouldn’t mind them on some sunny afternoons on the west coast when you’re staring at a sinking sun looking for those sets. My night vision gets a little off on the drive home. Hats — Same as above for sunny days lounging on the beach. I also have one that has a chin strap for paddling out in warm water.

Backpacks — Useful for hauling your wetsuit/booties/clothes to the beach. Not as cheap as that plastic grocery bag but more convenient.

Pants, Shirts, Jackets….Okay, the connection to surfing gets a little weak here. Most surfing clothes are just clothes. Buy whatever, who cares what brand. I buy the $5 surfboard T-shirt at the flea market. Who cares if it turns back into sugar when you wash it.
