Aviator Nation

Aviator Nation is a California-born brand rooted in the free-spirited energy of vintage surf and music culture. Every piece is designed, cut, sewn, and dyed in the USA — a rarity in modern fashion — and it shows in the craftsmanship. The brand is best known for its ultra-soft fabrics, hand-finished details, and bold graphics that feel straight out of the 1970s, but made for today.

From rainbow-striped hoodies to sun-faded tees and sweatpants, Aviator Nation pieces are made to feel lived-in from the moment you put them on. The aesthetic is distinctly retro, but it never feels forced. Instead, it celebrates a kind of laid-back nostalgia that’s easy to incorporate into everyday life. It’s no surprise the brand has built a following among creatives, athletes, and celebrities who value both comfort and statement-making design.

At Chrome, we love Aviator Nation for its ability to blend West Coast cool with high-quality construction. It’s casualwear with purpose — the kind of pieces you’ll wear for years because they only get better with time. If you’re looking to build a wardrobe of feel-good staples with a point of view, this brand delivers on all fronts.
