Founded in 2018 by Afro-Caribbean-American designer and engineer Jude Caze, paperxpencil© (PXP) is an apparel brand deeply rooted in honoring historically Black beach communities. Viewing these spaces not merely as vacation spots but as vital sanctuaries of survival, legacy, and peace. PXP champions a "beach state of mind", finding profound calm and freedom by the ocean, encouraging a return to inner peace and framing the coast as both a collective historical refuge and a personal retreat for mental clarity.
