Port and Starboard U.S.
About Us
Portandstarboard.com set sail in 2013 with a focus on red and green socks designed for nautical enthusiasts. The history and meaning of navigational symbols is of great importance to us and those in the marine community and serves as an internationally accepted code. This fun and fashionable line of apparel for everyday wear incorporates symbols into the design that have become quite popular.
