Do people really love wearing a collared polo with a horse on it?
Yeah.. us neither.
At Our Mate Tim, we’re on a mission to inject some actual personality back into your wardrobe.
We're here to make clothes that are expressive, un-apologetically fun, and impossible to ignore.
Think of us as the Vitamin B12 shot the fashion scene desperately needs.
Our Beginnings: The Spark
Fashion felt frustratingly split - the only options on offer were overpriced brands that basically say ''I have no personality," or cheap basics that looked like Soviet-era handouts..
As seasoned travellers, we noticed this lack of originality was a global pattern - wardrobes so neutral they could apply for Swiss Citizenship.
So we took matters into our own hands.
It started with one shirt - a cheeky design we called the Gang Violence Tee - it was bold, playful and somehow perfect.
Baristas smirked. Ticket inspectors grinned. Strangers asked where it was from. That shirt was our “proud parent moment,” and proof that humour and style could totally coexist.
Our Response: Accessible fashion for Everyone
One shirt became half a dozen. Half a dozen became a mission: to make clothes that help you stand out, spark curiosity, and maybe even start a conversation.
Since then, our stuff’s been road tested at after-work drinks (smart, without the collar), beach days (no sad palm tree prints here), and everywhere from rowdy bottomless brunches in Melbourne to Stockholm’s infamously stiff-lipped Stureplan nightlife.
Humour is a universal language we all speak. From Botswana to Brazil, our pieces have had people grinning, double-taking, throwing high-fives, and before asking the inevitable, “Wait… where’d you get that?”
Because when fashion’s fun, people notice.
What’s Next?
We drop fresh pieces regularly - No lame designs. Just bold, playful pieces that speak for themselves.
So If you’re tired of buying clothes that feel as uninspired as a beige vest off Temu... welcome, you’re in the right place.
Explore the store and find your new favourite tee, hoodie or sweatshirt.
Crisp Pieces. Big Statements. Fun Vibes.
OUR VALUES
Social & Fun
At the core of our designs is a commitment to spark fun, stir some mischief, and create connection. Whether you’re wearing our pieces or spotting them in the wild, our goal is simple: make you smile.
If you’re the type to slide into DMs with nothing other than a “Sup?”—we might not be your vibe. But, if you’re looking to break the ice at the bar later, you’ll fit right in.
Irreverence
We think the world takes itself a bit too seriously. Our T-shirts bring a bit of sunshine - playful, cheeky and sharp enough to earn a nod from your favourite satirical comedian - and PC enough to keep things chill, but never boring.
Creating Moments
The best memories are made through unfiltered convos, shared silliness and late-night laughter.
Our gear brings the vibe and helps shape the mood - sharp enough for work functions, fun enough to kick on.
Do it Smartly
We strive to share culture without pretentiousness, embracing a global vibe in your local environment. We aim to enjoy the world around us in a fun inclusive way.
