If you’re heading out on a beach trip, it’s best to be prepared for anything. Stock up your beach bag with our favorite items from our online storefront, Six & Main. No matter which coast you love most, you can bring Lakeland along with you.

Towel off

Show off your Lakeland pride with this towel, featuring local landmarks like the Southgate sign drawn by artist Sara Wright. If you want to rep the whole county, opt for this 863 towel.

Keep a cool head

Block the rays with a stylish new hat. Go for a trucker cap that comes in six colors, get extra coverage with a bucket hat, or throw on a Lkld Girl hat from local brand East of These.

Got your back

It’s always wise to keep an extra shirt handy. We love a colorful design, and this checkered tee gives us endless summer vibes.
