The partnership between Pressure Point Roofing and Tiki Island Wear represents a strategic approach to addressing the practical needs of roofing professionals while maintaining brand consistency across job sites. This collaboration, which began unexpectedly at a golf tournament, has resulted in work apparel specifically engineered to withstand the demanding conditions faced by roofers throughout the company's service area.
The initiative originated when Larry Sykes, Sales and Marketing Director of Pressure Point Roofing, received one of Tiki Island Wear's straw hats as a giveaway at a roofing-industry golf event. After testing the hat extensively during various outdoor activities, including a rafting trip down Oregon's Rogue River, Sykes was impressed by its durability despite exposure to water, sunlight, and other environmental elements. This experience demonstrated the product's resilience and prompted the company to commission custom hats specifically designed for roofing crews.
Roofers in the Pacific Northwest face unpredictable weather patterns ranging from intense sun exposure to sudden rain showers, creating challenging working conditions that require specialized protective gear. The resulting custom hats feature wide brims for comprehensive sun protection, water-repellent properties for defense against light precipitation, and durable construction engineered to withstand heat, sweat, and moisture without warping or deteriorating. The hats also prominently display the Pressure Point Roofing logo, providing crews with professional brand presence while working on residential and commercial projects.
"As a roofing company, we hold our materials—and our workmanship—to high standards. We expected nothing less from our gear," stated Sykes. "Tiki Island Wear exceeded our expectations." The custom hats have become an essential component of the roofing team's daily uniform, receiving positive feedback from both crew members and clients while performing effectively across diverse weather conditions, whether under summer sun in Medford or in the drizzle of Weed, California.
This partnership aligns with Pressure Point Roofing's straightforward mission to provide "peace of mind from the top down" and reflects the company's commitment to quality that has characterized its operations since its founding in 1989. The collaboration demonstrates how industry-specific partnerships can address practical workplace challenges while enhancing professional standards.
