Growing up in the
little beach town
of Fire Island, New
York, the brother-
sister duo Jake and
Caroline Danehy
always appreciated
the sun, sand, and
living mindfully. It
wasn’t until they
noticed the plastic
waste in the ocean
that the idea of
using plastic bottles
to create swimwear
sprang up. Today,
together they run
a NY-based brand
creating swimwear
out of recycled
plastic bottles—
Fair Harbor. The
young founder &
CEO, JAKE, talks
about the journey
of the brand, new
product launches
using innovative
materials,
collaboration
collections, and
a soon-to-debut
women’s line.
