Our Story

Lobsters in the Great Lakes…?
Wait—HOW?
WHEN?
WHERE—oh wait, the Great Lakes…never mind on the where…
Something seems fishy here…

The Great Lakes mean many things to many people.

To some of us, the Great Lakes mean family and friends gathering to spend downtime together — a summer beach bonfire on one of the beautiful beaches of the five Great Lakes (we’re looking at you, Lake Michigan).

To others, it’s climbing for hours, scaling the dunes — only to run back down in a matter of seconds. Worth the climb? We think so.

The Great Lakes Lobster Company was founded by two friends swapping family fishing stories over a few cold beverages — part folklore, part wild imagination — but the stories always came back to the good times and great beaches of the Great Lakes.

Our apparel designs are curated and created in-house, inspired by the lakes, the dunes, and the families gathering to watch the sunset — often culminating in beach bonfires glowing way past dark.

And hey, when it gets chilly, grab a Great Lakes Lobster Company hoodie — and don’t forget the marshmallows.
