OUR STORY

The Fats (originally known as the Travellin' Fats) started as a laugh between a bunch of mates catching up for our first annual piss-up at our old local pub back in 1992.

The lads had travelled from all over the country to be there, and after the first thousand beers, someone dubbed us the Travellin' Fats….and the name stuck.

The following year we printed a handful of 'Fats' tees for the boys to mark the occasion... and that was the start of something none of us saw coming.

After an absolute three-day bender that first year, word got around. By the second catch-up there were already a couple of hundred loose units waiting to get after it.

The weekend became legendary, and every year after just kept getting bigger & looser.

We spent the next decade chasing good times around Australia—B&S Balls, music festivals, race meetings, rodeos, country pubs and anywhere else that looked like it might end in a cracking weekend.

Along the way we created more than 100 different Fats tees and caps for footy clubs, bucks parties, B&S Balls, race teams and events across Australia, England and the USA.

Then life happened.

The adventures slowed down, the merch disappeared, and The Fats went into hibernation.

But the boys never stopped asking...

"When are you bringing The Fats back?"

Then in 2023, after years of getting hounded, we finally pulled our finger out.

Boom....the Fats were back.

Today, The Fats is built on the same thing it always has been—mateship, road trips, cold beers, terrible decisions, unforgettable weekends and all the funny shit that happens when good mates get together.

If that sounds like your kind of weekend, you are in the right place...

Get on it. Get after it.
