Christian Shea from Atlanta, Georgia is this week's Southern Tide Tailgater of the Week.

The idea for Southern Tide was born not on the coast of South Carolina where founder, Allen Stephenson spent his summers, but on a trip to Italy where inspiration was at every turn. From historical architecture and couture clothing to high-performance sports cars, he noticed common threads - exceptional craftsmanship, clean lines, fine quality, and classic design. These elements combined with Allen's heritage became Southern Tide.

The feel, the look of Southern Tide is exception and so is the growth of the company.

Recently Southern Tide has been ranked as the 27th fastest growing retail company in the United States by Forbes Magazine.

“Being recognized by Forbes Magazine as one of America’s top 30 most promising companies is an exciting accomplishment for the Southern Tide team,” said Jim Twining, CEO of Southern Tide. “This honor is due to the dedication and loyalty of Southern Tide associates, our retail partners and customers, all of which have contributed to our success and growth. We look forward to carrying this momentum into the new year.”

Southern Tide's way may not be the most conventional, and may take a little longer, but they want their clothing to make you look and feel your best. Superior fit, classic design and comfort are key elements of their effortless style.

If you travel to any college or university throughout the south, you will surely see Southern Tide being worn throughout. Additionally, on game day throughout the country, Southern Tide can be noticed at most tailgates. Southern Tide is as much about Saturday game day and southern culture as college football and SouthernPigskin.

Each week, SouthernPigskin will feature a Southern Tide Tailgater of the Week. When your tailgating, and are wearing Southern Tide, we want to see you celebrating on game day! Send us a photo of you tailgating in your Southern Tide to contest@southerntide.com , and we’ll choose our top three favorites.
