THE BRAND

HOTEL POROS, a resort sportswear and swim label based in Sydney, was founded in 2020 by Fotis Tetikis and Tyson Tatana.

The brand's name pays homage to the idyllic Saronic Greek island of Poros, which the duo discovered on their summer travels in 2016.

Their experiences while island hoping in the Mediterranean inspired them to develop a collection of ‘off-duty’ pieces that combine sport and casual elegance. HOTEL POROS’ creative vision is reflected in the brands visual language, comprising of retro sport silhouettes, a bold colour palette and statement prints.
