Pressure Point Roofing, a roofing contractor serving Southern Oregon and expanding into Southern Washington and Northern California, has partnered with Tiki Island Wear to create custom-branded straw hats for its crews. The collaboration, sparked by a chance encounter at a golf tournament, aims to provide a durable, weather-resistant solution that reflects both companies' commitment to quality and craftsmanship.
Pressure Point Roofing, founded in 1989, has grown from a shake-roof restoration business into a comprehensive roofing enterprise known for integrity and performance-tested materials. Tiki Island Wear, recognized for custom high-quality straw hats, shares these principles, making the partnership a natural fit. The idea emerged when Larry Sykes, Sales and Marketing Director of Pressure Point Roofing, received a Tiki Island Wear straw hat as a giveaway at a roofing-industry golf event. After testing it on a rafting trip down Oregon's Rogue River, Sykes was impressed by its durability against water, sunlight, and outdoor conditions.
This led to the development of custom hats tailored for roofing work. The hats feature wide brims for sun protection, repel light rain, withstand heat, sweat, and moisture without warping, and include the Pressure Point Roofing logo for a professional, cohesive on-site identity. The hats have already received positive feedback from clients, according to the company.
“As a roofing company, we hold our materials—and our workmanship—to high standards. We expected nothing less from our gear,” said Larry Sykes. “Tiki Island Wear exceeded our expectations.” The hats have become a vital part of the daily uniform for crews, whether working under the summer sun in Medford or in the drizzle of Weed, California.
The partnership highlights the importance of quality work apparel in demanding environments. For more information about Pressure Point Roofing, visit https://pressurepointroofing.com/.
